Brendan Begley and Mike Hanrahan have created a show, which tells a story of Ireland's 1916 rising through songs, music, poetry and stories of the era spanning 1890 to 1916. They shine an extra significance on songs like Oro s??© de bheatha abhaile, the tri-coloured ribbon, A Nation once Again, James Connolly and A Soldier's Song which would eventually be translated to Irish and become our National Anthem.

The Patrician Secondary School are delighted to be able to bring this show to the people of Newbridge as part of our commemoration activities for the Easter Rising.  The show is on a nationwide tour and the school has secured the only Kildare date.

It will take place in the same school hall that was the venue for the sell out Christy Moore concert in 2014.

As the hall capacity is limited you are advised to get your tickets early or pre book them at the school, 045 432410, The Kiosk, 045 431685 or The Nook, 045 435994.

The local band Catha (Kieran Behan, Mary Young, Tom Poole) will be the support act on the night.

Doors open at 7pm.
