grapevvine: Clare Murphy — The Spanking Goddess and Other Discarded Tales

In this special event at St. Catherine's Cultural Centre, grapevvine welcomes astounding Irish storyteller Clare Murphy to Kinsale to perform The Spanking Goddess and Other Discarded Tales, a romp through the untold myths of the Celts.

These are not your regular myths. Expect wicked tales of badass deities, feral fighters, unorthodox sex, hairy bodies, mastery, and goddess-on-goddess battles. Clare effortlessly exhumes the Celtic canon and brings the wild women who never made the cut, into the light.

Not for the faint-hearted. Definitely for grown-ups.
