Dee Mulroney/Growler: "Growler is Dee Mulrooney’s alter-ego and performance piece. She is an 81-year-old shamanic vulva exiled in Berlin. Driven out of Dublin by rising rents and a poor quality of life, Growler has appointed herself the voice of the forgotten woman. Through Growler, Dee’s performances explore femininity, classism, displacement, religion, the female experience and Dublin’s social history.
Since the rise of the Me-Too movement, the female voice has been gathering momentum and power. Despite the universality of the female experience as a theme in art, it has been largely underexplored. Until now.
Using the vehicle of Growler, artist Dee Mulrooney delves into the depths of woman. The anonymity of the costume allows Growler to speak her mind on taboo topics like sexuality, religion, class and sexual violence.
Dee’s performance art is provocative and has a political point to make."

Ebun/Sista Gift: Ebun is an art director from Dublin, passionate about creating different worlds on sets, travelling through time researching tiny details from things of the past and possibilities of the future. The demand to produce can be exhausting and unrealistic to expect every week of the month. Using feminine power and the Left Hand path Ebun is figuring out how to manage workflow and blood flow together making the most of each season.
In the process of finding creativity within the cycles for work Sista Gift was awakened with a bang of the Growlers shopping trolley on Moore St. in 2021. Sista Gift is the voice that calls out issues through art, Ebuns less conservative auntie, she symbolises the influence of the ancestors and represents a section of our vast culturally mixed Ireland today. Sista Gift hones the darker side of life, turning the raw and sometimes brutal aspects Ebun is faced with into writing material and more.

The Lady Grew: Lady Grew is an American artist living in Ireland. Her award-winning dynamic stage shows - which can include singing, rapping, pole dancing, stand-up, and Clown - destigmatise and promote s€x worker rights. Her work is infused with the passion and energy from her knowledge of s€x work on the ground - and on the bed!
Her performances reflect a commitment to the movement from years of organising at SWAI (S€x Workers Alliance Ireland) and ESWA (European S€x Workers Alliance). Taking the ‘isms’ out of activist art, Grew's performances deliver insight, and inspire you at your core, getting you into your body, and onto the dancefloor!
This August at Edinburgh Fringe she will perform “Hookers Do It Standing Up” (shortlisted for Judges’ Choice Award in Dublin Fringe ‘18). She is also writing a memoir to be published with Mercier Press.
Lady Grew sets BANG!! You don't wanna miss her.
