Dear Visitor
'Se do bheatha! Welcome to Siamsa Tíre, the National Folk Theatre
of Ireland. Founded in 1974, the Siamsa Tíre mission is to
reflect Ireland's great wealth of music, dance and folklore on stage,
through vibrant, colourful theatrical entertainment and to continue
creating new folk theatre presentations, drawing on our traditions
and a rich cultural reservoir.
Welcome to Siamsa Tíre Our summer
season offers four rare and exciting shows.
Presented through the medium of theatre, using traditional song, dance
and mime/movement these Siamsa Tíre performances continue to
receive standing ovations both from home and worldwide audiences,
captivated perhaps by the appeal of a way of life from times past
and by the intriguing Celtic resonances that are so much part of Irish
heritage and traditions.
