Celebrating Ireland in Story and Song
Saturday, March 1, 2 p.m.
Storyteller, Marilyn Murphy Meardon, has a partiality for Irish stories -- ghost, fool, fairy, and trickster although all Irish stories have a bit of knavery in them. She's been at the trade for some 15 years and will, at the drop of a shamrock, spin an outlandish yarn. She is joined by Tom Maguire, an Irish playwright, bodhran player and whiskey tenor whose fervor for things Celtic reaches well into the Dark Ages. His songs tell of illegal immigration, the plight of the tinkers, the peace talks in Northern Ireland and the tenderly romantic. Also performing is Phil Edmonds, a native of Killaloe, County Cork, Ireland, who learned to play tin whistle in a place where he says: "The backyard was the field." When he was 14 years old, his family emigrated to America and settled in South Providence where he still lives. Along with tin whistle, Phil plays button accordion with great warmth and spirit. Fiddler, vocalist, harpist and leprechaun, Mary King weaves these gifts together with her love of music and Ireland. The Celtic soul is alive and well in the stories and songs you will hear, and your ears and eyes will smile. This program is free and open to the public.
