The Ireland Institute
Ar Snámh by award-winning Irish language writer Seán Mac Dhonnagáin is presented at The Ireland Institute, 27 Pearse Street, Dublin 2, D02 K037, on Friday, 18 October and Saturday, 19 October, nightly at 7.30pm. Each performance is followed by a post-show panel discussion with the artists and guest speakers on the theme of ‘The Irish Language and the Arts: Unique forms of expression to promote equality, human rights and diversity’. Ar Snámh is directed by Hilary Bowen-Walsh and produced by Smashing Times International Centre for the Arts and Equality as part of the Aisling programme supporting emerging and established artists working in the Irish language with a focus on the arts for equality, human rights and diversity.
Ar Snámh follows Jane, a young woman who moved away from Dublin as a child, as she returns to her home county by travelling up the Liffey in a dinghy she bought in Lidl. Special thanks to Foras na Gaeilge.
