STEREO is a performance with live music by Purple Door which explores the themes of identity and categorisation, with a focus on challenging stereotypes.

Purple Door, led by Kasia Eliasz, is an inclusive performing group dedicated to creating a welcoming space for artistic and social dialogue. Our mission is to cultivate an environment that encourages perpetual, critical learning and exploration at the intersection of Performing Arts and various artistic genres. Through sounds, movements, words, and visual arts, we celebrate the diverse creative expressions of young individuals with Down syndrome, showcasing the boundless potential within this vibrant community.

In 2023, Purple Door hosted a summer programme called “Get Together,” inviting established artists from diverse nationalities and backgrounds to lead workshops. This initiative fostered powerful connections between the artists and the wider community.

Supported by Kildare County Council Arts Service’s First Fortnight Award 2024, in partnership with First Fortnight.

This event is part of Riverbank’s programme for First Fortnight 2025.
