SYNOPSIS: WORLD PREMIERE - Step into one of South Kerry's most welcoming pubs, somewhere along the Dingle peninsula, where stories and songs flow as easy as a whiskey and a pint – with a group of master storyteller-musicians leading the way. From jigs and fairy tales, to drinking songs and war stories, you’ll enjoy good cheer and great company while having some craic along the way. The Irish spirit of love and resilience shines through in classics like “Danny Boy,” “Whiskey in the Jar,” “Star of the County Down” and “The Irish Rover” that’ll have you raising a glass and shouting sláinte by the end of the show!

SEEKING:

[CIARÁN] Early thirties man. Irish, older brother to Aoife; both the goofball and the bright light of the band; about to embark on a move to America but hides his fear of leaving his community and culture behind a wide smile and an upbeat song. Primarily plays acoustic guitar and bodhran.
