Whipping The Herring: Survival & Celebration in Nineteenth Century
Irish Art
Whipping the Herring examines everyday life in nineteenth century
Ireland, with particular focus on the depiction of the less well-off,
for whom life was often a struggle for survival. The exhibition will
include depictions of fairs and funerals, weddings and wakes,
pilgrimages and penances. Artists of the period frequently set out to
depict stereotypical images, the sort of standardised sentimental
imagery found throughout nineteenth century Europe. However a number
of regional artists, such as Nathaniel Grogan, James Brenan and
Daniel McDonald, were more original in their work, transcending
stereotypes and providing a vivid eyewitness account of Irish life,
in both city and country. American and English artists also visited
Ireland and their paintings illuminate many aspects of Irish rural
traditions and material culture Crawford Art Gallery, Emmet Place.

May 9 to June 2

LIFEBOAT
Directed by Belinda Wild. Written by Nicola McCartney. An
extraordinary true story of courage, survival and enduring
friendship. On Friday the 13th of September 1940, a ship, the City of
Benares, set sail from Liverpool for Canada. On board were ninety
young evacuees escaping the relentless bombing and dangers of war-
torn Britain. Four days into the crossing the ship was torpedoed by a
German submarine, and sank. Only eleven of the evacuees survived. Two
girls, Bess Walder and Beth Cummings, spent 19 terrifying hours in
the water clinging to an upturned lifeboat. They willed each other to
survive. Lifeboat is intended for all ages. Times vary, visit

Performed by George Seremba. Come Good Rain is a moving and

torture and near death. With poetic sincerity, Seremba captures the
hearts of audiences who experience the thoughts and words of a man
embracing life, in the face of near death. Tickets: f25. Box Office:

intimate look at motherhood. Six mums tell stories you have not heard
before – stories too embarrassing, too personal to tell even their
closest friends. “Sometimes when I am desperate for more sleep I lie
to my husband about how many times I got up in the night with the
baby”. After record-breaking UK, Australian and Canadian tours and a
West End run, this award-winning, sell-out theatrical phenomenon is
