Adapted from Irish author Jamie O'Neill's novel of the same name, At Swim, Two Boys depicted the developing relationship between two boys set against the backdrop of Ireland's 1916 Easter Rising. The winner of the 2005 Theatre in Wales Award for Best Dance/Physical Theatre Production, the show toured for three years at major theatre festivals throughout Britain and much of Europe. In 2011, Earthfall revived their production of At Swim, Two Boys to coincide with the tenth anniversary of the novel's publication. Items comprise printed theatre and festival programmes, flyers and newsletters; press releases; printed performance tickets; printed performance agreements; material relating to art exhibition as response to the production; academic dissertation based on the production (two copies); creative notes; stage notes/directions; and reviews.
