The Saolré Story Project

A Podcast featuring Patsy Irwin & Cormac Lynch

Theatre maker and storyteller Noelle Ní Ríagáin visited older people in their homes to talk about ageing, loss, memories, dying, and their creative pursuits. Working with Éanna Dowling, an experienced radio documentary and podcast producer, they recorded stories and songs, honouring the wisdom of the older generation.

Saolré means ‘lifecycle’ in Irish
