Vagabones

Opera Collective Ireland

Based on the play Trespasses by Emma Donoguhe, a new opera by Raymond Deane, libretto by Renate Debrun.

A moving tale of conflicted human emotions, the opera is a fictionalization of the judge’s own account of the trial of Florence Newton in Youghal in 1661 – one of only a handful of witch trials that ever took place in Ireland. Featuring a stellar cast of Irish talent, directed by Ben Barnes and the musicians of Crash Ensemble, Vagabones is be a culmination of great writing, superb theatre and thrilling music.
