a glimpse of the joys and sorrows that make up the life of an Irish Traveler. A story for everyone who has ever had to face the difficulties of life and learn to survive them. FEATURING MICHAEL HARDING (IRISH TIMES) AND FINBAR COADY (MUSIC) THIS IS A ROUGH, RAW, AND UNCONVENTIONAL PIECE OF THEATRE.
