Alison Ní Mháirtín • Pegasus The Clothes Horse
Alison Ní Mháirtín’s first full-length play for children is playing at the National Opera House from Thursday, April 25 to Saturday, April 27.
Fiadh has the perfect family: Mammy and her delicious jam, Mum and her magical yew stick, the best bedtime stories ever, and a magical clothes horse called Pegasus for endless adventures. Then one day, a delivery arrives that will change everything…
This new play by Wexford-based Alison Ní Mháirtín brims with wonder and play. Irish language, music and mythology combine with puppetry, opera and some very silly socks to create an epic journey from a young girl’s own house to the National Opera House.
