IRELAND: LEGENDARY AND CREATIVE, FROM THE WEST COAST TO THE STREETS OF BELFAST
From November 1st to December 5th, from a festive opening day celebrating Samhain (the precursor to Halloween) to a lively closing ball, this Focus on Ireland invites you on an engaging and vibrant journey through contemporary Irish culture. Ireland is bringing its artists on its European adventure and providing generous support that the Théâtre de la Ville and its Irish partners have channeled into five-weeks of wonderfully diverse performances. With thirty performances of ten different works for all ages, we celebrate this dynamic, living culture and let ourselves be carried away by its poetic imagination and misty, dreamlike landscapes.
