Drama Nua le Paul Mercier

Tar éis dó The Passing agus The East Pier a chur ar stáitse den chéad uair mar eagrán dúbailte i Márta na bliana seo, tá áthas orainn fáilte a chur roimh Paul Mercier athuair agus é ag filleadh orainn le dráma nua, Sétanta.

I mí na Nollag seo, déantar athshamhlú ar sheanscéal miteaseolaíochta do shaol na linne seo. Saint, cumhacht agus cáil atá mar ábhair iniúchta agus an tsochaí chomhaimseartha á léiriú sa dráma Gaeilge seo. Athinsint fhísiúil agus shiamsúil ar scéal iomráiteach atá sa léiriú seo a bhaineann leas as ilmheáin, maisc agus puipéid.

Cuireann Fíbín i gcomhpháirtíocht le hAmharclann na Mainistreach Sétanta ar stáitse. Beidh sé léiriú ar stáitse ón Máirt 6 – Satharn 10 Nollaig ar Stáitse na Péacóige.

After debuting The Passing and The East Pier as a double bill in March of this year, we are delighted to welcome back Paul Mercier, as he returns with a new play, Sétanta.
This December, the legend of Irish mythology is re-imagined for the world today. Performed through Irish, Sétanta uses the age old subjects of greed, power and fame to examine our contemporary society. This is a highly visual and thrilling interpretation of this well-known legend using multimedia, masks and puppets.

Sétanta is presented by Fíbín in association with the Abbey Theatre, for six performances only from Tuesday 6 – Sat 10 December on the Peacock stage.

Léirithe eile – Seanscoil Sailearna, Indreabhán, Co na Gaillimhe Luain 28 Samhan – Sath. 3 Nollag – 091 505855 www.fibin.com

Great night out.
Fair dues to Paul Mercier for the writing and directing - retelling a whole saga well in an hour and a quarter.
Staging was very impressive.
Top marks though, have to go to the cast. It was hard to believe five actors could do so much, at that energy level, so well.
Ba éacht é - bígí bródúil as!
