In a 'Theatre for the New City' production, which is based in New York, Sarah played 'Elizabeth' in a live online performance of 'Knock 'em Dead' by Jim DeMarse which was directed by Mary Tierney.
The cast of 'Knock 'em Dead' included Alex Elmaleh, Sarah Lafferty, David Elyha, Bob Adrian, Patrick MacNamara & Mary Tierney with narration by Aedín Moloney and technical supervision by John David West.
Sarah Lafferty narrated an original music & dance extravaganza called 'Fáinne Óir' which was created and composed by Kathy Fahey. The US première of 'Fáinne Óir' sold out to a crowd of 800 people at Symphony Space on Broadway. The music was performed by the Mayo Concert Orchestra and vocal group VoxFusion, while Riverdance star Ciara Sexton choreographed the amazing dance set pieces. The show was set to Padraig McCaul's art and it was co-produced by Mike Hannon.
Sarah's performance was described in the 'Irish Echo' as 'thunderous tenderness in these personal recollections of the narrator; tethering together the show's many elements with a crystalline voice, soaring with speeches of pain, passion and pride.'
