THE ARTSHOUSE LIVE PODCAST John O Brien and Liosa O Sullivan

Deirdre of the Sorrows is one of the most epic legends in Irish folklore. Her stunning beauty inspired love, lust, jealousy, rage, revenge, war, loss and death. How amazing is it to have the story brought to life on stage through Opera, with John O Brien composing a blockbuster score fore Eadaoin O Donoghue's libretto? Deirdre and the Sons of Usna is the latest opera to be produced at the Everyman Theatre. Liosa O Sullivan also came to studio to talk about the Friends of Everyman Opera and supporting artists into the future.
