Red Sandstone Varied Productions

Red Sandstone Varied Productions is an Irish performance arts company. The organisation, based in County Cork, has created public art in festivals in Great Britain and Australia.
Background
Red Sandstone Varied Productions was founded in November 2006 by Yvonne Coughlan. The organisation specialises in public arts participation, theatre, site specific, and promenade-style events. Their first production, entitled The Haunted History Tour, took place at Cork City Gaol and ran for four months. It consisted of a theatrical tour covering 100 years of prison life; audience members were treated as prisoners who were guided by a warden as they met with other prisoners.
The company's promenade-style theatrical events at the old waterworks, in conjunction with Culture Night Cork; Blackrock Castle Observatory, were funded by Fáilte Ireland; other such events were held at Youghal Medieval Festival. Additional work has been presented in Bandon and Kinsale in Ireland; Glasgow, Scotland; and Melbourne, Australia.
