This multi-cast presentation illustrates once again that the Irish are greatly skilled storytellers. It all begins with rich Irish music, which reappears throughout to signal changes in the mood of the stories. Each narrator, in addition to delivering colorful accents and pronunciations, expresses action words with energy and descriptions with vividness. The stories move from terrifying events to majestic descriptions. Examples include graceful swans that were once children and a witchy-sounding woman who levels a 300-year-old curse on those who defy her. This is drama for the ears.
