There is only one rule: everyone has to be who they say they are.
DOUBLE - the first presentation to be broadcast on DARKFIELD RADIO - is a troubling exercise in familiarity for two people sitting opposite each other on either side of a kitchen table, replicated in hundreds of rooms all across the world over 20 minutes.
DOUBLE explores the Capgras delusion, a terrifying condition in which the sufferer is convinced that a loved one has been replaced by an exact replica with malign intentions.

Thank you for inviting us into your home. We didn't know where else to go…
A dead couple look for a temporary solution to their permanent condition.
VISITORS is a 20 minute immersive audio experience for two people to experience together opposite one another in their living room in their home. It is a reflection on our irrepressible desire to touch and why the dead find so little comfort in the world of the living. We require you to remain 3 metres apart, and while you may yearn to reach across the chasm that separates you, we ask you be careful who else you invite in.
“Death is no more than passing from one room into another.” — Helen Keller

COMMISSIONER Bram Stoker Festival
“I want you to believe...to believe in things that you cannot.” - Bram Stoker
You have been chosen and we thank you for your sacrifice. In return we offer you the opportunity for eternal life - but there are conditions. You could, of course, wait to see what the future might bring. You could take your chances on a cure for mortality. The cure is coming - but it is not coming fast enough for you.
ETERNAL is a 20 minute immersive audio experience for one person, alone in their bed. It explores the quandary of eternal life and wonders what price you would settle for to achieve it. ETERNAL was commissioned by the 2020 Bram Stoker Festival, Dublin.
