Músaem na nGréibhlí / The Museum of Curiosities Le Daithí Ó Muirí agus Fergus Kelly

In Partnership with IMRAM

Is áit iontach go deo é Músaem na nGréibhlí i mBaile Átha Cliath. Cathair ghríobháin dhá stór de dheismireáin, nithe scáfara agus scéalta ar leith. Tá a scéal féin ag gach rud; blúiríní béaloideasa, taismí leighis nó iarsmaí de chreidimh nach ann dóibh a thuilleadh. Sa léiriú seo, tá scéalta le Daithí Ó Muirí a ghlacann inspioráid ó na nithe atá sa mhúsaem. Léifear na scéalta os ard le tionlacan fuaime leis an gceoltóir trialach Fergus Kelly.

The Museum of Curiosities is Dublin’s most unusual destination – a two-floor labyrinth of strange artefacts, eerie objects and peculiar histories. Every object tells a story: fragments of folklore, medical missteps, theatrical inventions or traces of long- lost belief. Daithí Ó Muirí, whose work is marked by the surreal, has written stories inspired by the museum. They will be read to the accompaniment of a spooky soundtrack from experimental musician Fergus Kelly. 

Please note this event runs twice on this evening.
