Performed on a spectacular, vertical stage - purpose built in a new space at SS Michael & John in Temple Bar. 'The Butterfly Ranch' is the tale of a mystery boy who quite literally falls from the sky into the muddy, murky and violent world of Jed Senior. On Jed's ranch, swine feed on butterflies, Latvian farmhands run covert internet scams and the rule of the gun is law. But the boy's eagerness to learn Jed's etiquette of violence upsets the balance of power, leading to a bloody conflict which leaves no one on the butterfly ranch unscathed. 'The Butterfly Ranch' is a dark and deeply political meditation on life's repeating cycles of violence.
