Translations

Barbarian Productions are delighted to announce their upcoming production of Brian Friel's Translations at the Keble O'Reilly in 3rd week, Trinity Term 2010...

In 1833, the rural, Gaelic-speaking township of Baile Baeg in Co. Donegal, Ireland, is in for a dramatic upset to its everyday affairs: a British cartographic expedition, headed by the domineering Captain Lancey of the Royal Engineers, is putting together a new map of the Province. ‘Translations’ brilliantly presents the flashpoint of cross-cultural encounters, blending intense personal drama with a kaleidoscopic overview of the fraught history of Anglo-Irish relations. In the strained relationships between lovers, siblings and whole national spheres, the audience are confronted with a timeless testing of loyalty, identity, collective memory and personal freedom through the scope of a community caught halfway between absurdity and Arcadia.
