Dancing At Lughnasa

Description

Description

Dancing at Lughnasa is Brian Friel’s award winning play depicting the harsh life and dreams of five sisters in County Donegal during the summer of 1936. This is the summer when their brother Father Jack returns from Africa where he had been a priest at a leper colony. It is also the summer when Gerry Evans, Welsh peddler of dreams – gramophone salesman and sometime ballroom dancing teacher – returns to visit the sisters, one of whom he has had an illegitimate child with named Michael. The play is in fact Michael’s story told by him, and remembering that particular summer when aged seven his father came to visit him and his aunties and when father Jack returned. Nothing would ever be the same, not even the memory he relates.
