About This Show

Devanaughn Theatre presents Brian Friel’s Irish classic Translations.

Friel’s masterpiece is a gripping and challenging drama that explores the richness of language and what happens to a people when their language is taken from them. Set in Donegal in 1833, the play tells the story of a small community on the brink of irrevocable change as British troops and engineers begin to standardize the Gaelic placenames into the King’s English. Dani Duggan directs.

Appropriate for ages 12 and up.
