Cargo Sofia is a documentary theatre at its best and most engaging. The novel venue for the performance is a freight truck converted to seat an audience of 45 people. Twice nightly, the city becomes the setting for a performance as the audience watches it passing by through the glazed side of the truck. The truck is driven around by two real life Bulgarian truckers who recount the story of their journey from Sofia to Dublin, accompanied by video footage of the journey. The itinerary for the evening will take in visits to people working in and around Dublin port, providing a revealing insight into their daily lives.
