Based on her work with the National Folklore Collection and her recent M.A in Irish Folklore, internationally acclaimed Irish folk singer and actor Lisa Lambe brings us her new project NightVisiting, collaborating with renowned traditional musicians alongside local contributors to create a unique performance bespoke to Hinterland. NightVisiting reconnects us to the social role that night-time social house visits once played in our oral traditions and folklore, and in the preservation of our songs and stories from tender love songs to the bawdy, to songs of loss and longing. NightVisiting is a celebration and a reimagining of those nights of sharing the old songs and stories, not to be missed!
Lisa will be joined by stellar musicians Claire Sherry, Tim Doyle & Mike Brookfield. We are delighted to announce that award winning playwright Deirdre Kinahan will also join Lisa on stage as the NightVisiting ‘Rambler’ on the evening.
