The play centres around mythic Irish hero Cuchulainn, who has killed his son and in grief attempts to fight the sea. Half drowned, he lies in a state between life and death, with his wife and mistress watching over him. Strange events occur, as Cuchulainn has in fact been replaced by a changeling and they try tirelessly to get him back, bringing onto the stage demons, ghosts and the supernatural.
The play encapsulates a great sense of multiculturalism with the contribution of Nigerian Carnival Ireland. It puts an interesting spin on the play as it is combining both Nigerian and Irish cultures to create a unique masterpiece, that those with a high regard and interest in culture and theatre would thoroughly enjoy.
