About Eimear Eve Regan
A Walking Shadow is a solo theatre piece by Eimear Eve Regan, performed at the Haldane Theatre. Running for 50 minutes, it is a lyrical and haunting meditation on womanhood, loss and the weight of tradition. Woven with Irish folklore and mysticism, the show moves like a dream — fluid, poetic and deeply visceral. Shadows flicker between past and present, the living and the dead, as voices rise in lament and revelation. The rhythm of firelight, water and whispered tales pulses through the piece. It is a story of resilience and ruin, where grief is embodied and shame lingers like mist over the land.
Why see this show?
This is theatre that moves at the pace of a dream — visceral, folkloric, and genuinely haunting. If you want something quiet, poetic, and emotionally resonant between the louder shows, A Walking Shadow at the Haldane Theatre offers exactly that.
