Take a dander through the magical world of Narnia in Ulster-Scots

13 November 2023

On Wednesday November 22nd, as part of plans to celebrate Ulster-Scots Language Week, the Guildhall will host  ‘A Dander Through Narnia’ an illustrated talk by writer and poet Robert Campbell which pays homage to C.S. Lewis’ mystical world of Narnia. 

 

This new production weaves together readings from the books, with original poetry in Ulster-Scots, accompanied by sumptuous illustrations of characters from the world of Narnia created by the author. Although much of the poetry and some of the spoken word within the talk features Ulster Scots, the author will provide explanations in English as the journey through the magical world of Narnia unfolds.

 

To attend, please book your place by contacting T: 028 71 376579 or by emailing [email protected]. Light refreshments will be provided. The event begins at 6pm and the author will be on hand after the event to take questions and comments from the audience.
