To celebrate Walking with Ghosts at the National Opera House, Wexford this coming August, the Irish Times have teamed up with Landmark Productions and the Talbot Hotel Wexford to offer one lucky winner a fantastic Walking with Ghosts prize. One winner and their guest will receive a wonderful overnight stay with breakfast on Friday, August 12th at The Talbot Hotel Wexford, along with a pair of tickets to see Walking with Ghosts at the National Opera House that evening.
Gabriel Byrne’s highly acclaimed one man show Walking with Ghosts comes to the National Opera House, Wexford for three performances only on August 12th and 13th, prior to a West End run.
Adapted from Gabriel Byrne’s best-selling memoir of the same name and directed by Emmy award-winning director Lonny Price, Walking with Ghosts is by turns hilarious and heart-breaking, a lyrical homage to the people and landscapes that ultimately shape our destinies.
As a young boy growing up on the outskirts of Dublin, Gabriel Byrne sought refuge in a world of imagination among the fields and hills near his home, at the edge of a rapidly encroaching city. Moving between sensual recollection of childhood in a now almost vanished Ireland and a commentary on stardom in Hollywood and on Broadway, he returns home to reflect on a life’s journey.
Walking with Ghosts is produced by Landmark Productions and Lovano.
