Join the town full of comical characters in Limerick, Ireland, where delightfully devious little leprechauns Shillelagh, Shay, and Shannon help orchestrate the fun! Between them and boastful Finn McCool, there’s a story hiding behind every bush! Braggart Finn McCool has made himself the talk of the town, stretching the truth more than a wee bit too much. Thank goodness his wife, Oona, has been clever enough to get Finn out from between many rocks and hard places. But with his latest tall tale, he might be in the rockiest, hardest place yet! How can she protect Finn from his boastful lie that he could beat a giant in battle? When the giant appears and demands to see Finn, Oona’s strategy is clever, successful and most of all, hilarious! (Just as clever is the playwright, who made the staging of this scene a piece of cake!) The loveable folks of Limerick add even more spice and laughter to these Irish folktales — the Malone family, sneaking around town to buy surprise gifts for each other; the Sweeney sisters, who like to sing but don’t know they lack talent; and the town hypochondriac, who follows the doctor so closely she almost steps on her heels!
