Drawing on the infinitely rich treasury of Ireland’s cultural heritage, Tomáseen Foley’s A Celtic Christmas is a re-creation of a night before Christmas in the West of Ireland in the 1940s, in the days before the motorcar, the television, and the telephone.
Traditionally, in the remote parish of Teampall an Ghleannáin -Tomáseen Foley’s birthplace - the neighbors gathered at each other’s farmhouses on the nights leading up to Christmas, bringing with them their fiddles, tin whistles, flutes, bodhráns, uilleann pipes, and, perhaps, most important of all, their unshakeable sense of community. They gathered to raise the rafters of the old houses with the joy of their music, to knock sparks off the flagstone floor with their traditional dances and, of course, to fill the night with the laughter of their stories.
With a group of old and new performers and friends, Tomáseen Foley’s A Celtic Christmas, returns to the Rigas Family Theatre following a sold out performance during their last visit.
