An Dráma Murúch|Murúch, 6th Class Play

Chuir Rang 6 a ndrma “Murúch” ar staitse le déanaí i gCeatharlach ag Coirm Gael Linn. Léiriú ar scéal faoi ollphéist a tharraingíonn iascaire faoi na dtonnta agus an t-éalú a ghnóthaigh sé. Fuair an seó ardmholadh ó mholtóirí in Amharclann George Bernard Shaw le déanaí. Múinteoir Ben’s 6th class present “Murúch”. Recently staged at Coirm Gael Linn in the George Bernard Shaw Theatre in Carlow, it has wowed the critics. “Léiriú Foirfe / a perfect production” said the judges. Best of luck to all the poor unfortunate shipwrecked sailors and their drums at their next performance in Ring at the Waterford Schools Drama Festival.

Guímid gach rath orthu ag imeacht go Féile Dramaíochta Phort Láirge sa Rinn. Is éard is brí le Murúch ná maighdean mara. The story follows a fisherman to the bottom of the sea where he is imprisoned with all the other shipwrecked sailors who are under the sea monster’s spell. How do they escape?

Merrow (from Irish Murúch, Middle Irish murdúchann or murdúchu) is a mermaid or merman in Irish folklore.
