Lúrapóg Larapóg – a new show for children by children

June 20, 2013

‘Lúrapóg Larapóg’ is the newest stage production to come from the Donegal Gaeltacht.

The show is for children, showcased by 4 children, aged between 7 and 11, from Gaoth Dobhair.

Material from 3 recently published children’s’ books as Gaeilge: Ící Pící, Ní Thuigimse Daoine Fásta agus Báidín Fheidhlimidh is used in the show, from newly composed works and traditional songs, to poems and rhymes. The show is full of comedy, and richness of language, and inspires the imagination and mind of young audiences.

Lúrapóg Larapóg is for all ages, little and big, young and old. Previous shows would suggest strong audience interaction with singing and dancing and even an open call to the stage to take part.

Storyteller Suzanna Ní Ghallachóír from Rann na Féirste adds to the show, telling tales of suspense, craic and mischief, which the audience enjoys thoroughly.

As well as live shows, Lúrapóg Larapóg also runs workshops for children based on the songs, stories and books used in the show, which are a great way to actively involve children in a fun environment, through singing and dancing.

Samples and more information on the books referred to above, as well as recording of the songs are available at www.eabhloid.com.

Lúrapóg Larapóg is ideal for festivals and special occasions, and the staging of the show as well as bookings can be discussed with Marina on 087-2350151.
