Tír na nÓg: A Journey Through Irish Mythology

Concept: "Tír na nÓg" is an immersive and interactive drama project that takes the audience on a captivating journey through the rich tapestry of Irish mythology. Drawing inspiration from ancient Celtic legends, the project weaves together tales of gods, mythical creatures, and heroic deeds to create a spellbinding theatrical experience. Through a weeklong Mythical Theatre Camp teens and young people will explore the themes, develop creativity, and produce a short showcase at the end of the week. By receiving funding for this project teens and young people will gain access in a rural community to creative projects which usually are inaccessible due to travel or cost. 

Narrative Arc: The storyline follows a young protagonist who discover a hidden portal to the mythical land of Tír na nÓg, the Land of Eternal Youth. As the protagonists explore this magical realm, they encounter legendary figures such as Cu Chulainn, the Morrigan, and Fionn mac Cumhaill and other local Deities such as Cailleach and Brigit. 

Interactive Elements: Audience members actively participate in the unfolding of the story through a video of the short theatre piece which can be disturbed online.
