c21 launch Richard Clements’ God Has Left the Building as part of Belfast International Arts Festival, coming to The Mac 14th–15th Oct
We are delighted to announce that we are coming to The Mac, Belfast, on the 14th and 15th of October to present a rehearsed reading of ‘God Has Left the Building’ by playwright/performer Richard Clements, writer of the 2025 break-out Belfast International Arts Festival hit ‘Ottilie’ and ‘How to Bury a Dead Mule’ (UK Theatre Best New Play Nominee).
Richard takes the audience back to his childhood in 1980s Northern Ireland in a poetically powerful and striking new one-man show about finding your voice within the bearpit of the school playground. A play about identity, faith, loss of innocence and chasing squirrels around trees.
‘God Has Left the Building’ is confessional memoir theatre, as one man’s subconscious unlocks memories of BMX rides, summer days spent lying beneath open skies, and dreams of what the future might hold. But darker voices of authority circles, forcing questions that shouldn’t yet need answering.
What is beyond those clouds? Is there really any help or are you on your own?
A play about faith, the 1980s and finding your voice, presented as part of the Belfast International Arts Festival, this is not one to be missed! Tickets can be purchased below.
