Stephen Collins: "Irish Voices"
Having recently visited our community with Walt Whitman, Stephen returns with his onman show “Irish Voices” as a tribute to St. Patrick’s Day. They call it The Norton Anthology of English Literature and yet many of the writers included were born in Ireland. The commonality, of course, is the English language but there are vast cultural differences which will be explored in this performance. A great deal of Irish writing deals with the land, the past, the church, and the changing political landscape. Yeats, Joyce, Heaney, McCourt, and other prominent writers are represented in this dramatic offering.
