  Felicia 'FELISPEAKS' Olusanya 

• Synopsis

  A love letter to the emotional lives of Black, Irish, queer and fringed communities. A work about memory, imagination, and survival, it moves between poetic realism and dreamlike ritual, where memory and imagination collide. In its queer coming of age story, it follows Young Felicia, a “Black Irish midlands culchie” grappling with the layers of their identity and the responsibilities that come with it, led by a wise guide: The Octopus.
