An Triail – Performance for Schools presented by Fíbín Teo

Ireland’s only professional Irish language theatre are back with their nationwide tour for schools, particularly for Leaving Certificate Curriculum. 

This year the award-winning company brings you ‘An Triail’, but this is An Triail as you’ve never seen it before.  Prepare for puppets, high entertainment, and such engaging visuals that you’ll actually WANT to answer questions on it. 

Bringing a seemingly outdated plot into the context of our modern society, Fíbín seek to address issues highlighted by both teachers and students alike.  Difficulties in relating to the characters as the drama unfolds, comprehending the confinements of 1950’s Ireland and seeing beyond the black and white nature of dialogue are all dealt with in this snappy Fíbín production. Come and see for yourselves! 

Tá an t-aon comhlacht proifisiúnta Gaeilge thar n’ais leis an turas náisiúnta meánscoile, dírithe go háirithe ar churaclaim na hardteistiméireachta. 

An bhliain seo, cuireann an comhlacht buaite duais ‘An Triail’ chun stáitse, ach ní hé ‘An Triail’ mar a bhfaca tú riamh é seo.  Bí ag súil le puipéid, ard-siamsaíocht, agus íomhánna chomh láidir go mbeidh tú AG IARRAIDH ceisteanna a fhreagairt faoi. 

Ag tabhairt comhthéacs an sochaí nua-aimseartha do scéal atá airithe a bheith as dáta, teastaíonn ó Fíbín déileáil leis na ceisteanna a bhíonn ag mic léinn agus múinteoirí.  Leis an léiriú seo téann Fíbín i ngleic le deacrachtaí; patuaire dos na carachtair a bhraith, tuiscint a fháil ar srianta na tíre sna 1950’s agus níos mó ná dubh agus bán na cainte a fheiceáil.  Bígí linn! 

Reviews

Irish Theatre Review:

“Fíbín Teo’s production brings the seemingly outdated plot into the context of modern society, using puppets, masks, and music to appeal particularly to a younger audience, making it current and more accessible……(This is) A creative and vibrant interpretation of Máiréad Ní Ghráda’s play.” Full Review – Helen Cusack Nov 22
