Arán & Im is a theatrical performance/installation in which the writer and documentary-maker Manchán Magan bakes sourdough bread for 70 minutes while offering insights into the wonders of the Irish language—exploring potent words of landscape and the many phrases that bring to life the mysterious glory of our natural world.

Is taibhiú drámaíochta é Arán & Im ina mbácálann Manchán arán taois ghéir ar feadh  70 nóiméad fad is a thugann sé léargas ar iontaisí na Gaeilge—agus é ag ceiliúradh focail mhealltacha a bhaineann leis an tírdhreach, téarmaí i dtaca le hiomas agus léirstean, agus an iliomad nathanna a thugann beocht do chumhacht agus mistéir an tsaoil nádúrtha.

Listen to John Cosgrove and Manchán Magan talk about the upcoming performance at Celtic Junction. 

It is a celebration of language, land, and local Irish food, with Manchán’s freshly-baked bread for the audience to slice and spread with butter they churn themselves from Irish cream.
