A Murder of Crows (2011) by Mike Kenny
<em>A Murder of Crows</em> is a dynamic and theatrically exciting work for children aged 8 and over, based on the classic tale of Hansel and Gretel. The play explores themes of famine, family loyalties and personal growth. <br /><br />Six actors weave a gothic story of two children’s journey from abandonment and fear to ultimate survival, seen from the quirky perspective of a chorus of raucous and garrulous crows, whose boisterous antics will delight children.<br /><br />For children aged 8 and older.

Boy With A Suitcase (2019) by Mike Kenny
Children's theatre; theatre in Kilkenny; theatre history; Irish theatre; professional theatre; performing arts;
Like his hero, Sinbad the Sailor, who undertook many perilous voyages in search of his fortune, Naz must travel half-way around the world to reach the safety of his brother in Dublin. <br /><br />Naz teams up with Krysia, a young girl in similar circumstances, who helps him dodge soldiers and find safe passage over mountains, across seas and through the mire of a city slum. <br /><br />A gripping tale of adventure and stories, Naz’s journey throws a spotlight on the real dangers faced by children in other parts of the world, and the lengths to which they must go to reach safety in the relative security of a country like Ireland. <br /><br />For children aged 8 to 12. <br /><br />County Kilkenny schools attending the play received two workshop sessions: one about <b>visual literacy</b> - before attending the play - and a 2nd on <b>critical analysis</b>, after seeing the play. <br /><br />Author, local historian and former teacher Ann Murtagh developed a Teacher Resource Pack for the play, with Barnstorm.
