Obituary: Vincent O'Neill, award-winning actor and master of mime who co-founded a New York theatre company
He was an actor of 'uncommon talent, depth and invention' and a champion of the 'transformative power of theatre', according to US critic and historian Anthony Chase. Vincent Michael O'Neill was born in south Dublin as the middle child in a family of five. His father, Leo, was a principal officer in the Department of Finance, and both he and Vincent's mother, Helen, instilled in their children a passion for literature. As his sister Margaret recalls, the house was 'full of books', and their mother sent them at an early age to Audrey Meredith's school of acting in Glenageary. Vincent and his older brother Chris continued their interest in drama through school in CBC Monkstown, and in UCD, where Vincent studied Spanish and French. He later attended Trinity College Dublin. Chris dropped out of his third year in college when he was offered a place in the Abbey School of Acting and Vincent would follow. They collaborated in the Oscar Theatre and School of Acting, founded by Chris. When French pantomimist Marcel Marceau visited Dublin, he encouraged Vincent to apply for a place at his Ecole Internationale de Mimodrame in Paris. There he was fortunate to meet Samuel Beckett. In an interview with the Irish Echo, he recalled that when Beckett learned he was studying mime, he remarked that 'you are a walking oxymoron, a native of the most talkative nation in the world pursuing the art of silence'. In 1985, Vincent and Chris took their production of Beckett's Waiting for Godot to Buffalo in New York State, where they received enthusiastic reviews. He returned to Dublin to work with the Abbey Theatre company as actor, director and choreographer, but Chris went back to Buffalo. After a visit in 1989, Vincent joined him, telling Anthony Chase in 1990 that 'it's difficult to raise your head above water' in Dublin, and 'when you do, they hang around waiting for you to drown'. Within a year, he and his wife, actor Josephine Hogan, founded the Irish Classical Theatre Company (ICTC) with Chris and Dr James Warde. He appeared in 67 productions and directed 30 more at the ICTC. Chase recalls in a tribute 'one moment of revelation' during the first ICTC production of JM Synge's The Playboy of the Western World at the old Calumet Arts Building, where Vincent was not only an actor but a director. ADVERTISEMENT 'The stage was challenging — a linear set-up with two support poles that had to be worked into every set, walls flocked with soundproofing, sprayed black in a mostly fruitless effort to muffle the pumping music from the adjacent bar,' he wrote. 'But Vincent's artistry transcended every obstacle, commanding the space with that physicality he'd honed studying mime under Marcel Marceau in Paris. His vision communicated this familiar script with a playfulness and soulfulness that I had never imagined before. It was a divine theatre experience,' Chase added. Chris died unexpectedly in 1997. By then Chris's daughter Aisling, who had appeared as the boy in Waiting for Godot with her father and uncle, had acted in several of their productions. They included Sean O'Casey's The Shadow of a Gunman and Brian Friel's Lovers. She is now best known for her role as Carol in RTÉ's Fair City. Vincent held senior roles with the University of Buffalo theatre and drama faculty, and continued acting, directing and teaching. During Covid, he gave mime classes on Zoom. Writing for Theater Talk Buffalo, Chase said his 'mellifluous, expressive, and versatile' voice brought 'the full dimension of so many characters to life, from Beckett to Wilde, Synge to O'Casey, Yeats to Shakespeare'. He won a number of awards as actor, director , playwright, and 'outstanding citizen'. His last performance was in Friel's Faith Healer, directed by Hogan. The couple had remained close friends after separating; O'Neill married Teja Rao two years ago. Vincent O'Neill is survived by his wife Teja Rao, children Laura and Jamie, sister Margaret, close friend Josephine Hogan and extended family. His ashes will be returned to Ireland for a funeral mass at a later date.

Ian Dempsey recalls his day working on Live Aid
Former 2fm DJ and current Today FM breakfast show host Ian Dempsey worked behind the scenes on RTÉ's award-winning TV coverage of Live Aid. He shares some memories of the day What was your role on the day? "Along with my colleagues, I was 'manning' the phones (a term which probably doesn't exist 40 years later) with fellow presenter Barry Lang and Broadcasting Assistant Linda Bent. "Our job was to chat, flirt and secure plenty of cash from a very willing public. What a great day it was. We were also simulcasting on Radio 2 (now 2FM) so there was no escape for anybody!" Were you there for the whole thing? "No. As I remember it, we each had to do a shift of about three hours over in the TV Block. I was there from about midday until 3pm so early enough and I drove straight home afterwards and went into a darkened room with the television on and watched every microsecond until about 3am the next day." Live Aid was a HUGE live event with a lot of moving parts and a lot going on so lots of chances for cock-ups - were there many during RTÉ's coverage? "To be fair to the Donnybrook end of things, it was plain sailing as far as I could see. I suppose they had very little control over the actual music, the feeds, the satellites etc so it was just a case of filling in the spaces whenever necessary. Of course, there was an amazing 'can do' attitude with everybody involved and that usually helps things run both smoothly and brilliantly." What were your highlights - musical and otherwise? "I think that pocket of Live Aid in the late afternoon in London which featured separate performances by U2 (landscape changing for Bono), Queen (21 minutes of excellence - no debate) and David Bowie (well, what did we expect?) - but it has to be said that Status Quo at midday kicking it all off with the most appropriate song ever was a bit special - Rocking All Over The World." What were your lowlights - musical and otherwise? "I thought the American end was less good but maybe I was just tired. It didn't seem to have the same oomph! Although, I did enjoy The Thompson Twins with Madonna." Did you get the feeling early on in the day that Ireland would end up contributing the most per capita than any other county? "Well, Ireland has a brilliant record at helping others. I knew it would be an impressive total from the response that we got on the phones. It was non-stop!" Was it an emotional experience for you? "Yes, I think it was something the whole world could come together for and it proved the power of people when we all felt passionately about the issues in Ethiopia. And the fact that Bob Geldof, a lad from South County Dublin, was putting the fear of God into rock stars, TV viewers and donors made it all extra emotional." What do you think Live Aid's legacy is? "It was a unique event that will never happen again. Everybody was caught on the hop and the outcome was unbelievable."
