Dancing at Lughnasa

‘I want to dance, Kate. It’s the festival of Lughnasa. I’m only thirty five. I want to dance.’

On the outskirts of Ballybeg, County Donegal, the five Mundy sisters’ lives are bound by responsibilities and social expectations.

When influences from a wider, more modern world creep into their home, the sisters’ are swept along in a sea of change and suddenly the life they know is gone for good.

Brian Friel’s multi-award-winning drama is a powerful and moving exploration of reflection, memory and how the future will arrive no matter how much we resist.
