Mill Productions present this richly rewarding 5th birthday treat. An absorbing and entertaining production, full of vibrant theatricality, brilliant choreoghraphy and a fusion of action, music, poetry and drama.
The play is set in the rural life of Cavan in the 1930s. From there, in Conall Morrison's imaginative adaptation, we are swiftly immersed in the world of Patrick Kavanagh's classic novel. Poet-farmer Tarry with his nose in a book, his head in the clouds, his hand on a spade and his heart yearning for love, is permanently at odds with the prosaic, hard-scrabble, small-horizoned, backbiting existence of his fellow farmers.
The play is directed by Paraic McIntyre, Artistic Director of Livin' Dred Theatre Company based in the Ramor Theatre in Virginia.
Date: 8 to 18 June 2011
