Blather, Blarney and Balderdash!

(ST CHARLES) It’s St. Patrick’s Day!  Vero Voce is proud to present "Blather, Blarney and Balderdash", Folk and Fairy Tales from the Emerald Isle!  Three hilarious and action-packed Irish folk and fairy tales collide in raucous laughter when a trio of wild and crazy leprechauns try to help tongue-tied shepherd Fin O’Grady learn to tell a story and win the hand of his one true love.  Assisted by the wee folk of Ireland, Blather, Blarney and Balderdash enact ’The Hunchback of Knockgrafton,’ in which a simple man’s gentle nature wins him an unexpected prize and a cruel counterpart learns that it’s not a good idea to mess with little people.  In ’The Griffin’s Feather,’ young Aidan bravely encounters a sneezing girl, a frenzied farmer and a bombastic boatman before snatching three feathers from a hen-pecked griffin in order to cure a sleeping beauty.  In ’The Bird, the Mouse and the Cricket,’ a courageous lass and three magical animals risk their necks to help a sour prince regain his lost laughter.  At last, the shy Fin discovers that a story is a treasure that increases the more you share it. 

"Blather, Blarney and Balderdash" is directed by student directors under the guidance of Vero Voce's Theatrical Artistic Director, the show features the talents of Riley Brutto, Macey Buckman, Morgan Buckman, Cora Cease, Trevor Cowart, Aaron Delaney, Madeline Hotham, Erica Johnson, Alaina Karner, Charlie Karner, Jordie Karner, Rachel Tork
