A new theatre performance exploring the weight of keeping traditional Irish music alive and the artist’s need to express their true self.

Danny O’Mahony has dedicated his life to the mastery of his instrument as well as to the preservation and performance of Irish traditional music. Now, after 40 years of breathing life into centuries-old tunes to honour the memory of those who have come before him, this walking repository is finally taking a breath, a moment to stop and consider what this lifelong dedication has cost him.

"The piece in a most untraditional way is a hymn of praise to the accordion in Irish music tradition." — No More Workhorse

This play is part of the Canada Ireland Foundation’s Bealtaine Theatre Festival, which brings the best of Irish Theatre to Toronto. Learn more: https://www.canadairelandfoundation.com/explore/bealtaine-theatre-festival-2026/
