As part of Fingal County Council’s Creative Ireland programme, a new Irish musical The Promise will open the Swords Summer Festival on Thursday, July 20, at 8pm, in the magnificent setting of Swords Castle.
The Promise is a tale of intertwined love stories, mixed with betrayal, revenge and reconciliation, set in early 19th century Ireland and takes some of its inspiration from the final battle on the east coast of Ireland of the United Irishmen at Drishoge in North County Dublin in 1798.
Written by Paul Redmond, The Promise features a cast of 10 actors/singers accompanied by a six-piece band and is supported by a 20 strong choir. It is directed by multi-award winning director Noel McDonagh.
Tickets are available online at www.thepromisemusicaldrama.com or by calling 087 1019 652.
