Leprechauns, Fairies and more abound in this lively re-telling of some of Ireland’s best loved tales. Irish favorites like Bee Mouse Harp & Bumclock, an Irish Jack in the Beanstalk story where Jack gets magic bugs instead of beans, and Gilly Dirtyfoot where a young lad’s aversion to washing his feet causes him to fall in with a fairy band bring laughter and delight for all ages. Cloaks of invisibility and magic spells abound as hapless Gilly sets out to help free the Princess of France. Known for her vivid comedic style, Diane brings delight to her interpretations of these classic Irish favorites all accompanied by the vivid strains of the Celtic harp.
