Dierdre of the Sorrows painting by John McKirdy Duncan (1866 – 1945)
A girl is born, a prophecy is made and so begins one of the greatest stories of Irish mythology, the story of Deirdre of the Sorrows.
Her epic story, retold in three parts by Giles Abbott, is violent, sensual, funny, hugely romantic and tragic, and though it’s feet are in the past (Iron Age in origin) it is a story whose eyes are firmly fixed on the present.
Is beauty, for a woman, a blessing or a curse? And if a curse, why? Imagine the story of Helen of Troy, but told from Helen’s point of view!
Recorded live, text improvised in the moment from a deeply known story, this is like an audiobook for your eyes – a vbook in three gripping episodes!
