The Arts House
The Arts House May 23rd First Hour
•
In this hour Elmarie spoke to June Lacour about Africa Day Cork which actually runs all this week! Then we'd perfect summer music from Cork's Ger Wolfe. Niall Cleary from Graffiti Theatre Company was back to remind everyone that this is the last week for their children's theater piece for Play it By Ear at The Everyman . Conor caught up with Marion Wyatt to chat about the latest collection of poetry on the Cork Arts Theatre Website and we included a recording of the Iconic Eileen Nolan, founder of The Montforts. Ansin bhí amhrán againn ó Fiona Kelleher ag céiliúradh an Cork Folk Festival anuraidh. And we finished the hour with a classic hit from Fiona Kennedy, as we dream of The Beach.
