Dancing at Lughnasa by Brian Friel, directed by Donna Byrne, is a beautiful balance of sparkling comedy and almost unbearable poignancy. Dancing at Lughnasa is a memory play framed by narration from Michael, who looks back to a halcyon time in 1936 when, as a seven-year-old boy, he lived with his mother Chris and her four unmarried sisters, Kate, Maggie, Agnes, and Rose (based on Friel’s real family), in the fictional Irish village of Ballybeg. The big excitement that summer was the arrival of a Marconi wireless.
