On the Heels of the Hound and The Gift
A storytelling double-bill from two of the best new generation storytellers. One brave scealai (myth-teller) will lure you into the fantastical world of Ancient Ireland. Claire Muireann Murphy brings you on this dark and ferocious journey where warriors leap with blinding frenzy, one-eyed monsters hunt the shores, and shape-shifters blur the line between this world and the ever-so-close otherworld. Dominic Kelly melts down an adult fairy tale and pours it inside a crunchy contemporary shell. Young men face impossible tasks, young girls may lose their lives, and you can find the strangest things inside the ear of a horse. Comic and suspenseful this powerful performance explores responsibility - to ourselves and the next generation - and the consequences of walking away from it. A stroll in the hills may never seem the same again.
