Synge Poem
PRELUDE
by: John Millington Synge (1871-1909)
by: John Millington Synge (1871-1909)
TILL south I went and west and south again,
Through Wicklow from the morning till the night,
And far from cities, and the sights of men,
Lived with the sunshine and the moon's delight.
I knew the stars, the flowers, and the birds,
The gray and wintry sides of many glens,
And did but half remember human words,
In converse with the mountains, moors, and fens

The Producer Moema
The Tinker's Wedding
By
J.M Synge
The Tinker's Wedding, Producer Moema de Castro Alves will be filming a documentary on the play history , including J.M Synge life. The riots in the Abbey Theatre with his play ' The Playboy of the Western World to The Tinker's Wedding being banned from Abbey Theatre.
With Mythology's Production of the play being held in Ionad an Phiarsaigh , 27 Pearse street, the home of 1916 Easter rising Republican Leader, Padraig Pearse.
Padraig who critically attacked Synge's Riders to the Sea and Tinker's Wedding plays who decried it because of the author's attitude to God and religion. he changed his mind later on. Writing in 'From The Hermitage' in 1914, Pearse declared himself an admirer of Synge. Pearse wrote that Synge possessed a sad heart in which "there glowed a true love of Ireland, one of two or three men who have in our time made Ireland considerable in the eyes of the world."
Synge's audience felt that he did a disservice to Irish Nationalism for not idealizing his characters
It's about time , that Synge's masterpiece play and with the support of Ionad an Phiarsaigh, coming together to celebrate the rich Irish Culture of our somewhat forgotten hero's. As mark of respect to Padraig Pearse and J.M Synge, the play is being held from 25th to 27th March, around Easter Time and to recognise that great literature lasts forever with the play's first viewing in 1909
With the craftmanship of our Brazilian Producer, Moema , The Tinker's Wedding will surely find a fresh approach in 2011

The Tinker's Way of Life
The Tinker's Wedding is a two-act play written by Irish playwright J. M. Synge. The author's only comedy, it is set on a roadside near a chapel in rural Ireland. As the title suggests, the main characters are Irish Tinkers.
It received its first production in London in 1909,Yeats attended this performance and walked out after the first act. W. B. Yeats having decided not to present it at the Abbey, as it was likely to antagonize Catholic and nationalist sensibilities already outraged by The Playboy of the Western World (1907).
