Wilde Fairytales read by actress Veronica Quilligan
As we are coming up to Christmas, we invite adults, children and families to come and enjoy this special festive event. To celebrate the 150th anniversary of the death of Oscar Wilde, Irish actress Veronica Quilligan will be reading the fairytales which Oscar wrote for his children.
With humour sprinkled throughout the exquisite language, these compelling and heart-breaking tales of friendship, love and enlightenment will stay in your memory always. Children will love them – as will any adults who were once children! Come along (and bring a handkerchief).
