SUMMARY:Liverpool Medical Institution: Liverpool Medical Institution: Arán
  Agus Im (Bread and Butter)
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWritten and performed by Manchán Magan a
 nd produced by Once Off Productions\, Arán Agus Im (Bread and Butter) 
 is supported by Culture Ireland.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n…………………
 ………………………………………………\n\nWe need to find 
 a way of talking about the Irish language… About the sublime beauty and 
 profound oddness of this ancient tongue (that has been spoken on the islan
 d for 2\,500-3\,000 years)\, which is now slipping slowly from our grasp.\
 n\nWhat can the word for the lonesomeness of a cow bereft of her calf –
  diadhánach – teach us about our current methods of food production? 
 Why does one need to orientate oneself to the sun to give directions in Ir
 ish? To what degree is the Otherworld embedded in words for cancer? What
 ’s the word for the sound horses make when they meet after an absence?\n
 \nArán Agus Im (Bread and Butter) is a theatrical performance in which M
 anchán Magan bakes sourdough bread while offering insights into the wonde
 rs of the Irish language. During the show\, he’ll explore potent words o
 f landscape\, terms of intuition and insight alongside phrases that bring 
 the mysterious glory of our natural world to life.\n\nThe show is a celebr
 ation of language\, land and local Irish food. It invites audiences to sli
 ce freshly-baked traditional sourdough bread and to spread it with butter 
 they’ve churned from Irish cream.\n\nKnowledge of Irish/Gaeilge is not r
 equired.\n\nPlease note: there is a 5.30pm and an 8pm showing\, both on 18
  Oct 2024. Ensure you select the correct ticket for the performance you wa
 nt to attend.\n\nThe Liverpool Irish Festival would like to thank The I
 nstitute of Irish Studies at University of Liverpool for helping to bri
 ng this show to Liverpool.\n\n……………………………………
 ……………………………Manchán Magan: “I just knew that I wan
 ted to take people out of the norm\, which is what theatre does. But I did
 n’t want all the conventions and trappings of theatre\, of a three-act p
 lay. I imagined creating this little sanctuary on stage in which flour fro
 m Irish fields and water from Irish rivers could be transformed into a pot
 ent metaphor for our connecting to language\, landscape and life.”……
