Join me at Chester Little Theatre to watch Translations by Brian Friel.

Play Synopsis:
From the acclaimed playwright of Dancing at Lughnasa and Faith Healer, this hauntingly lyrical play is about the attempt to control a nation through its language.
Set in 1833 in Ireland, it tells of the British army's campaign to survey the country and in the process, replace the native Gaelic place names with English ones in order to bring about a political union.

Against the backdrop of a “hedge school” where the locals are educated in their native Irish, Lieutenant Yolland, a British soldier, falls in love with Maire, a peasant girl - and with Ireland. Their romance sparks displeasure and anger in the Irish and English alike, and when Yolland goes missing, the mutual revenge taken threatens to tear the countryside apart
