What Critics are saying about FINN McCOOL (a Tale of Irish Mythology):

"...the Talespinner troupe once again demonstrates the explosive acting
energy and clever staging invention they’ve become known for. And that’s a
darn good thing." --*Christine Howey, Scene Magazine *

*"Finn McCool (a Tale of Irish Mythology)* combines everything that makes
theatre great..." --*LandOfCleve.net*

Sean and Siobhan are the only children in Farfetchedtown who don't have a
story to tell.  With the help of a wise Storyteller and some wily Wee Folk,
they travel through the land of Faerie to meet the Greatest Giant of All
Ireland, Finn McCool.  But Finn has a mighty big problem of his own.  Can
Sean and Siobhan help Finn put things right and get their story?  Come on
down to Farfetchedtown to find out!

ABOUT TALESPINNER CHILDREN'S THEATRE: TCT is a Cleveland-based company that
develops and produces highly imaginative, original, collaborative and
interactive professional works for children that also stimulate creative
growth in its artists. At any time, these pieces may involve acting, dance,
music, puppetry, tumbling, drumming, and numerous other artistic
disciplines as imagined by the artistic teams working with and for TCT, and
are open to all creative possibility. TCT's aim is to bring theatre to the
community in its fullest form providing excitement, growth and joy for all
who are involved in and/or touched by its work.   Finn McCool (a Tale of
Irish Mythology) continues TCT’s fourth exciting season of bringing world
stories to Cleveland-area families and children. The 2015 mainstage season
began with Rosalynde & the Falcon (A Topsy-Turvy Tale of England), was
followed by The Silent Princess (a Turkish Folktale), and concludes with
Prince Ivan & the Firebird (a Russian Tale of Magic.)

TCT strives to reach across socio-economic, cultural and traditional
boundaries to help awaken and bring better understanding by opening eyes,
ears, hearts and imaginations in the young people (and artists) of
Cleveland and its surrounds.

TCT creates work that remembers that children are smaller people, not
lesser people.
