Atlanta’s stage for Celtic culture

Goodnight Delia

April 4-21, 2024

Written by John Murphy
Directed by Simon Gibney

Delia Murphy, the beloved songstress known as The Queen of Connemara, has given the world decades of music. Delia was the daughter of a County Mayo man who struck it rich in the Klondike Gold Rush, and she became the wife of an Irish Ambassador. Her songs are known by many, and her actions helped save thousands from the Nazis in World War II. Now she reflects on the beauty and friendship of song, and the part she played during the world’s darkest hours. Arís presents the fascinating true story of a life lived on the world stage.
