Performance Storytelling-with-music by Nick Hennessey (http://www.nickhennessey.co.uk/)

"The hag, a ruined house of skin and bone, sits winding up a thread. It is a thread that draws us slowly, inevitably into the withering arms of age. It is our ruin. But on her tongue is a song, on her breath is the fragrance of truth."
This story of a great search and the ultimate journey, is a reconfiguration of wild Irish mythology that lays bare our thirst for truth. Performance storyteller and singer, Nick Hennessey, returns to the Forge this autumn, bringing with him a dying king and the prince who wants to claim his crown... elemental, poetic and moving.
