The Ballad of Rory Roe (2000)

This was part of A River Through Time, a millennium project organised by Barnstorm in Kilkenny. 
The play was written to be performed in The Burgess Court, a large sloped grassy enclosure in Kells Priory, in County Kilkenny. 
The Ballad of Rory Roe is not listed in the Irish playography website, although the four core actors were professionals, and despite the fact that the whole enterprise was a huge undertaking...  However, there is some information about it on the Barnstorm website: http://www.barnstorm.ie/ .  There was a big community involvement, from all parts of Kilkenny, and it all took place against the backdrop of a "medieval village" which sprang up overnight through the efforts of the citizens of Kells.
The horse-drawn wagon, created by Harry Harris, was the centre-piece of the set, and a joy to behold, what with its folding doors, and integrated balcony ... every home should have one.

I’ll be true, be true to you

By all the stars that shine above.

When I am old, when I am grey

I’ll still be your true love.

I’ll still be your, I'll still be your,

I’ll still be your true love.

Mick Hanley composed the music and tweaked the words of the song for us.
