Story for The Yeats Project
The Irish Repertory Theatre presents THE YEATS PROJECT,
a thrilling month-long festival of all 26 plays written by William Butler Yeats - the world's most popular poet and playwright.
In association with the W.B. Yeats Society of New York,
the American Irish Historical Society, Glucksman Ireland House, and the Consulate General of Ireland New York, the festival also includes special evenings of dance with the champion step dancers of Darrah Carr Dance, poetry, films, lectures, and more, with some very special guests including Frank McCourt, Ciaran Sheehan, Marian Seldes, John McMartin, and more.
Eight of the plays will receive fully mounted productions on the Mainstage of the Theatre. In Cycle A are: The Countess Cathleen, The Cat And The Moon, and On Baile's Strand. In Cycle B are: The Land of Heart's Desire, The Pot of Broth, Purgatory, A Full Moon In March, and Cathleen Ni Houlihan. The remaining 18 plays will receive Concert Readings, directed by George C. Heslin in the downstairs Studio Theatre.
