The experience

The performance draws together figures such as Tlachtga and the traditional roles of women as seers, midwives and mourners. Contemporary satire and live music sit alongside older stories, giving the evening a theatrical rather than lecture-based format.

Practical details

The show starts at 20:00 on 29 October and is suitable for ages sixteen and over. Book through the festival’s linked ticket page. This is an evening performance with age guidance, rather than a drop-in children’s Halloween activity.
