Be in good company with Nora Connolly and her poetry. She’ll take you with to the West of Ireland – along with Dandy the Rooster, Drunken Fairies, The Madwoman of Cork and Dan McGrew. If there’s any time left to spare she may even get to tell you about The Dogs on the Roof.

Nora trained at The Abbey Theatre, Dublin, Ireland.  She took her James Joyce Bloomsday Event and Going West !!! to The Liverpool City of Culture 2008 Irish Festival.

Her most recent theatre work includes playing the cantankerous mother Mags Folan in Martin McDonagh’s THE BEAUTY QUEEN OF LEENANE at The Royal Lyceum Theatre Edinburgh.

She loves words, loves performing and is thrilled to be in Prague for this festival.

entertainment.
