This workshop is an exploration through theatre and dance that examines how Irish immigrants became the police force in the United States. During the early and mid 19th century, discriminatory employment signs read, “NO BLACKS, NO DOGS, NO IRISH.” Through evocative choreography and dance from a team of award-winning artists, Solas Nua explores the stereotype and legacy of the “Irish cop” throughout US history.
