Manchán Magan: Arán & Im

A Once Off Productions presentation

“A magical vision is hidden in the Irish language—we need to rediscover it”

MANCHÁN MAGAN

April 1–3, 2022 Tickets and info: irishartscenter.org

Arán&Im is a theatrical performance/ installation in which the writer and documentary-maker Manchán Magan bakes sourdough bread for 70 minutes while offering insights into the wonders of the Irish language—exploring potent words of landscape and the many phrases that bring to life the mysterious glory of our natural world.

It is a celebration of language, land and local Irish food, with Manchán’s freshly-baked bread for the audience to slice and spread with butter they churn themselves from Irish cream.

Arán & Im was originally presented in association with the Abbey Theatre and will be a featured event of Irish Language Day (see following page).
