The Tain
The Tain
One of Ireland's greatest tales has been brought to life in this new adaptation.
Turning the classic myth into a feast of sword play, buffoonery and slapstick.
Fresh from its debut at the International Theatre Festival in Milan, Italy, Cú Chulainn, the hero of Ulster, stands alone against the might of the forces of Connacht. A hero at his finest, but also his worst, in this comedic, pantomime adaptation.
The Queen of Connacht has come North to steal Ulster's legendary Brown Bull. With the men of Ulster sick with the curse, only Cú Chulainn can stop her. It's a shame he hasn't got two brain cells to rub together. Luckily his intellectually challenged servant stands by his side to save the hero from his own stupidity.
With the stupid leading the stupider, in a fight against the idiots, who will prevail? There's only one way to find out...
“A riotous, breathtaking, hilarious tale of villainy and terror.”
