An Fathach Leithleasach

An Taibhdhearc presents:

AN FATHACH LEITHLEASACH

An adaptation of the short story ‘The Selfish Giant’ by Oscar Wilde.

This is a magical story of a grumpy Giant who banishes children from his beautiful garden, turning his world upside down - will the grumpy giant ever open his heart and share his garden once again?

Inspired by Oscar Wilde’s The Selfish Giant, audiences young and old will be captivated by  a world, brimming full of magical creatures, plants and trees, where children, a grumpy giant and a mischievous fairy sing and dance their way through this unworldly garden. 

At its core, An Fathach Leithleasach is a story about sharing, and looking after our ever-changing world.  As the world shifts from winter to spring, we are reminded that kindness and connection can make even the coldest garden bloom again.

Integrated signed (ISL) performances were available at the 7pm show on the 6th and at 3pm matinee on the 7th. 

There was also a relaxed performance on the 14th of December, and English language access through Sibrwd, the language access app developed by Theatr Cymru.

Our audiences can download the app to their phones to receive closed captioning in English and Irish. The app is designed to make the show easy to follow, no matter what level of Irish you have.
