Eamon Kelly - Stories from Ireland 2
Спорт
Known in Ireland as “the seanchai” in the 1950s and 1960s for his RTE broadcasted stories, Eamon Kelly brought a tradition of storytelling to the masses both in his published works and for years in Galway where he ran a one-man show telling stories to enthusiastic, receptive crowds. Born in 1914, the man himself died in 2001, having traveled the world, been nominated for a Tony on Broadway and shared countless hours of stories with his Irish audience back home.
Traditional Set Dancing to music from Tony McMahon, Kevin Glackin and Paul McGrattan

Eamon Kelly, he entertained my dad on the radio for years. A seanachai.
What a massively talented man
A wonderful example of a lost art from Ireland's great storyteller........brings back so many memories.
This isn't just story-telling - this is sorcery.
God rest his gentle soul may he rest in peace eamonn Kelly
