Celtic Noh: “At the Hawk’s Well”
Noh meets a Celtic choir
The Hawk Princess, a Noh play, traces its roots back to a century-old work by famed Irish author W.B. Yeats. A remarkable fusion of Japanese and Celtic culture, the performance unites Living National Treasure Gensho Umewaka and the Celtic choir Anúna for a thrilling new theatrical experience.

Michael McGlynn, Artistic Director
Singing the words of Yeats and delivering a text that interweaves Early Irish and Japanese, Anúna will represent the spirit world that so deeply influences the atmosphere of the play.
