This event has ended

St Patrick's Cathedral, Saturday 25th November

Led by theatre maker Alice Coghlan in the character of a sailor onboard Lemuel Gulliver’s ship, this family workshop, uses theatre, song and storytelling to bring children and their families into the world of Gulliver’s Travels. First we are ship wrecked in the land of the tiny Lilliputians where Gulliver is twelve times taller than everyone! After Gulliver escapes with his eyes we set sail to Brobdingnag the land of the giants, where Gulliver survives being abducted by giant monkeys, dogs and eagles! Developed for by Alice Coghlan for the Swift and Vanessa Festival at Celbridge, this interactive family workshop will entrance children with Swift’s fantasy and make their grown-ups laugh at his wit.
