A Murder of Crows by Mike Kenny

Presented by Barnstorm Theatre Company

Suitable for ages 8 – 12 years
Duration 65 Mins

A Murder of Crows is a dynamic and theatrically exciting work for children aged 8 and over, based on the classic tale of Hansel and Gretel. The play explores themes of famine, family loyalties and personal growth.

Six actors weave a gothic story of two children's journey from abandonment and fear to ultimate survival, seen from the quirky perspective of a chorus of raucous and garrulous crows, whose boisterous antics will delight children. 

A Teachers’ Resource Pack will be provided to all teachers bringing groups to the show. This pack equips teachers with a series of practical worksheets which provide a focus for exploration and discussion of themes raised through the play.

Thursday 29 March, 7pm - 10pm, €95 (incl. first aid kit to take home) or €60 without first aid kit
