Landmark & Irish National Opera present Enda Walsh & Donnacha Dennehy's 'The First Child' (Navan/Cork/Limerick/Tralee)

The triumphant conclusion of Donnacha Dennehy and Enda Walsh’s uniquely dark operatic trilogy.

Donnacha Dennehy and Enda Walsh’s third opera, The First Child, is a narrative that is much larger than the characters themselves. A work that reveals itself incrementally and cuts between the normal and the mythic. Passing through the strange minds of the central characters. Moving sharply from darkness to comedy. Shaped by obsession and an unstoppable quest for revenge.

Featuring Crash Ensemble, conducted by Ryan McAdams.

Sung in English with English surtitles.

Running time: 90 minutes without an interval.
