SCANRA is a spellbinding night of music, myth and storytelling unearthing the ancient Irish origins of Samhain through the voices and visions of contemporary creators.

 

Now in its fourth year, SCANRA has sold out its annual performance at Dublin City Council Bram Stoker Festival three years in a row, building a reputation for magical/mysterious nights that draw audiences into a world of strange encounters.

 

This year, you are invited to gather around ‘The Bonfire’ at historic Bewley’s Café for their most intimate evening yet.

 

The lineup includes musician and performance artist Branwen Kavanagh, storyteller Sarah McKenna Dunne, performance artist Foxx and award-winning instrumentalist and composer Alannah Thornburgh, with performance poet Róisín Nic Ghearailt at the helm.

 

Part of Night Bites, Dublin City Council Bram Stoker Festival’s after-dark series presented in association with the Night-Time Economy Advisor, SCANRA: The Bonfire promises an evening of music, myth and mystery.

 

Come curious and let your mind wander into the bonfire.
