Fairy Legends of Ireland

A Charming Story & Harp Performance for Adults

There’s plenty of laughter and delight in this animated retelling of Ireland’s best-loved tales of the fairies. Favorites like Gilly Blackfoot where a young lad’s aversion to washing his feet causes him to fall in with a fairy band are complemented by tunes and songs on the Irish harp as well as tales of the mysteries to be found in the raised roths and deep dells of the Irish landscape including the story of the mysterious White Trout of Connacht that never changes and never grows old. Known for her vivid comedic style, Diane brings delight to her masterful retelling of these classic Irish favorites. The performance is accompanied by Margot Chamberlain on Celtic harp. A perfect performance to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day and the wearing of the green.

Storyteller Wows Millicent Crowd: “Unfolded with zest and humor, the story captivated the audience which scarcely moved in the course of its telling. Proof, if any such were needed, that storytelling is as vital as ever, and is in good company in the presence of Diane Edgecomb and Margot Chamberlain.” ~ The Advocate, Fairhaven, MA
