Roots in every room

Dublin Fringe Festival 2025 | The Complex | Sept 6-7-8

SoFFt Productions presents Roots in Every Room

Written & performed by Anna D., in collaboration with Greg Purcell & Peter Power
Directed by Eftychia Spyridaki

Roots in Every Room is a powerful poetic performance blending sound design, film, and spoken word. Inspired by a dream from Anna D.’s late grandmother, it explores intergenerational trauma, healing, womanhood, and the reclamation of ancestral power.

Raw, vulnerable, and visually arresting, this one-woman show is a cathartic journey through emotional inheritance, addiction, mental health, and radical hope. A visceral response to the need for personal and collective transformation.
