A tale about new beginnings
Drawing on her deep connection with Irish culture and her fascination for the edgy music of Broadway theatre, Hilary O’Neill brings to the cabaret stage, a mix of stories and songs, honouring those brave travellers in search of a new life in a strange new land.
An unforgettable evening of musical yarns about longing and despair; new love and love lost; wry humour, raw desire.
Featuring the haunting melodies of Irish laments and the evocative stage-music of Kurt Weill, George Gershwin and Cole Porter.
In this production, Hilary O'Neill is joined by:
the brilliant and versatile pianist, Janet Brewer,
and Performance artist/puppeteer, David Erskine.
The Earl does sit
and twirl
the curl
of his forelock.
Takes stock
of strategies,
reviews the tragedies
of past battles,
truces, treaties,
warriors, weaklings.
A bird does sing
in the garden fair.
A song so sweet
to smooth the beat
of war drums
still resounding,
ever pounding
in Hugh O’Neill’s head.
