Celtic Kindness

Join Castlemaine FRC for something different. Paddy Creedon, an FRC Boardmember, will kindly give his time to share this intriguing evening offering two workshops and lots and lots of fun with two of his talented colleagues!! ‘Celtic Kindness’: True Story set in 17th Century Ireland. Step into our original, magical, musical, interactive experience. Based on historically accurate events, our unique show focuses the incredible true-life story of the iconic, blind harper, Turlough O’Carolan. Turlough was traumatised when blinded by small pox at the age of 18. A genius composer, he developed an unhealthy relationship with alcohol. A single act of kindness transformed his life and changed Irish history forever. Let your feet tap, your heart smile, your spirit soar, maybe even dance! Allow our ancient Celtic music, our original story & poetry to captivate and infuse our soul. Performed in our sumptuous, bespoke, locally-made costumes, let our unmatchable performance, excite your eyes, delight your ears, expand your heart and enrich your mind. Paddy holds a wealth of experience in addiction recovery and is a dedicated recovery advocate. Paddy is a native of Tarbert and in long term recovery from alcoholism. He is a passionate supporter and fundraiser with his fantastic poetry for the RISE Foundation: https://www.therisefoundation.ie/ Come along and meet him in person you won't be disappointed.
