Tír na nÓg
Tír na nÓg is a new bilingual musical, and an exciting retelling of the story we all know and love.
The story of Tír na nÓg (The Land of Eternal Youth) is a popular Irish folk tale which tells the story of Oisín, a brave warrior and Niamh Cinn Óir, the princess of Tír na nÓg. In the traditional tale, Niamh is seen as a magical fairy-like woman who appears to Oisín from across a lake on the back of a white horse. She brings him back with her to the land of Tír na nÓg where everyone is always happy and no one ever dies to be her husband.
This musical flips the well known story on its head - after all, history is just the story that prevails. There are two sides to this story and we are going to hear Niamh’s. Why did she travel to Ireland? Why did Oisín come back? The show is told through a mixture of English and Irish to reflect the heritage and culture of the piece as well as utilising traditional and modern musical elements.
Tír na nÓg: The Live Album is now available on all major streaming platforms. More information about Tír na nÓg can be found at tirnanogthemusical.com
Chromatics
Chromatics is my debut musical. Showcased at Scene + Heard 2017, featured at Musical Bites at The Other Palace in London in May 2018, and performed twice at dlr Mill Theatre in 2018, this is a show about what it's like to grow up in Ireland.
James is trying to create his first masterpiece, while Al is ready to fly the nest for the big city. As for Kate, she’s just trying to hold it all together. This is a story about graduating, dreaming big and slowly realising that “it” may not happen, at least not as planned.
Aspirations swiftly dashed, plans pulverised and unexpected
ultimatums, we follow a group of friends as they journey through their new unknown. A story where everyone screws up. But with songs.
These tracks are a mixture of live recordings from various productions and writers demos.
