Performance storytelling by Steph Brittain & Ben HaggartyFriday 6th March at 7.30pm
Step into a maelstrom of myth as irrepressible storyteller Ben Haggarty is joined by electrifying new voice Steph Brittain in a preview of a bold new interpretation of a magical battle that shook the farthest shores of Ireland over two thousand years ago.
Centred on the legendary hero Fionn MacCumhail, his children and his life-long struggles with Donn, Lord of Death and King of the World, this tragic tale traces a long and powerful journey through generations of love, enchantment and war. Combining fragments of 15th-century manuscripts, archaeology and folklore held by farmers, The Bodies on the Beach is a resurrection of a forgotten epic - an unknown Celtic Iliad.
Join Ben and Steph - fresh from the windswept battlefields of the Dingle Peninsula -as they test the edge of ancient myth in modern form.
Raw, lyrical, and unforgettable. This is not just a wild myth retold. It’s an exploration of what it means to live, to regret, to sacrifice, and to endure in a relentless world.
What will survive the tide?
