Set in a time of the Great Famine, “The Deeds of Lord Barnard” follows the desperate attempts of a pair of farmers as they try to outsmart their wicked landlord and his hungry spaniels. Poignantly presented in the gardens at Workhouse Union, the hapless heroes try to decipher the will of the Gods… to varying degrees of success.

Performed by Iarla O’Neill, Rose Creagh, and Muiris Wallace, a troupe of theatre-loving friends from different pockets of the Irish countryside who sing, dance, and play together, exploring the nature of the contemporary rural through theatre and music.
