SIAMSA TIRE, THE NATIONAL FOLK THEATRE OF IRELAND
Founded in 1974, Siamsa Tire, The National Folk Theatre of Ireland presents on stage a theatrical entertainment based on the wealth of music, dance and folklore that has evolved from the earliest times to the present. Siamsa Tire has represented Ireland all over the world on stage, through vibrant, colourful, exciting entertainment and continues to create new folk theatre presentations drawing on our traditions and rich cultural reservoir.

Fulltime and community performers integrate and blend into a dedicated and talented team. Training occurs in the theatre and in Tithe Siamsa (Folk Academies) at Finuge in North Kerry and Carraig in Corca Dhuibhne, the Irish speaking area of the Dingle Peninsula. Productions by the company are fully accessible to people of all nationalities as the shows are delivered through mime, movement, music, song and dance.

Siamsa Tire is also a vibrant visual arts centre, which includes two galleries and an open-air sculpture courtyard. There are fourteen exhibitions held here each year, which are selected by Siamsa Tire, and external curators and feature work by local, regional, national and international artists.
