Review Archive
Rosheen FitzGerald lives art, weaves words and makes magic. Poetry, paint and performance, fashion and installation, education and collaboration, stagecraft and witchcraft all happen under the canopy of her Fucked Up Family Circus. Her words can be found in print, online, on toilet and gallery walls, declaimed from stages and etched into the hearts of those lucky enough to witness her spoken word poetry or ground breaking, ceiling smashing, cutting edge theatre. Divine and diabolical she is a juxtaposition in motion, smashing high and low art together with a healthy dose of personal process and social commentary. Fearless and with no fucks to give, she’s on a mission to change everything with creative faith and grassroots action. The Magic is Real.
