Athlone Castle Visitor Centre hosted ‘My Delicious Hat’, a unique free event created by Westmeath performance artist and storyteller, Paul Timoney, on Saturday afternoon last.
‘My Delicious Hat’ is a rather peculiar take on the story of how Cú Chulainn got his name. This brilliantly entertaining show combined surreal, silly, funny and rather interactive poems with activities that children truly enjoyed. Children were encouraged to join with the ‘generally-acting-the-messer-maestro’ and were suitably enthralled by Paul’s storytelling!
Paul Timoney is one of the most unique voices of spoken word; an award-winning Irish poet and performer, who has worked as a teacher and facilitator of creative activities for many years.
