Ireland - Red Rory and the Fairies with Seamus Egan and Bill Gordh

Send us a text

Storyteller Bill Gordh and multi-instrumentalist Seamus Egan improvise the Irish  folktale "Red Rory and the Fairies".  Red Rory likes showing off and telling stories - especially about the fairies. When he takes his fibbing a step too far, the fairies strike back with their playful wrath, throwing a wrench in his plans to head home for dinner with a trail of tricks and hurdles.
