The Very Curious Céilí is a joyous and deeply moving gig theatre experience where memory, storytelling and exhilarating live music collide, from Ceol Connected (Treehouse, Wunderground, The Far Field).
Every week, Eddie comes to visit his Granny Eve at the care home. She spends much of her time asleep and seems increasingly beyond his reach. But one day, a mysterious sound leads him to a box of forgotten memories hidden beneath her bed. What happens next turns their world upside down…
Brought to life by a brilliant cast of musicians and actors, The Very Curious Céilí places vibrant, high-energy live music at the heart of the story, moving between intimate moments and the irresistible energy of a live gig. The show explores the passage of time, the bonds between generations and the transformative power of music in a warm, imaginative and uplifting theatrical production.
The Very Curious Céilí was co-produced with Riverbank Arts Centre and National Concert Hall in 2024/2025, with additional support from Monaghan County Council’s Creative Ireland Programme and Arts Office, funded by the Arts Council. The 2027 tour is funded by an Arts Council Touring Grant.
