Christmas Cabin

This delightful Irish folktale has become our signature production for the holidays! Set in the days of the great potato famine, the tale follows the journey of a tinker's child who longs for one day having a home of her own. The years go by and her dream would go unfulfilled were it not for the wee people who come to her aid on a beautiful snowy night on a hillside in Carnaween.

The Washington Post called it "poignant and bracing...a reminder of the season's rich ideals," when it first premiered in 2009.

Accompanied by live traditional Irish music and just the right measure of Irish charm, this Christmas Classic is sure to warm even the hardest hearts this holiday season.

December 7 - 23
Fridays at 7:30 pm
Saturdays at 2:00 pm and 7:30 pm
Sundays at 2 and 4:00 pm

"Driven gently ahead by excellent storytelling, folksy singing, and surprisingly good Irish-style dancing , this little production does the job explaining the reason for the season. It’s a simple, welcome respite from the consumer-driven madness this time of year has become."
Terry Ponick, DC Theatre Scene

"The spirit of selflessness and giving is at the heart of this production, and is shown in a loving way that enchants the entire family!"
Julia L. Exline DC Metro Arts

"I believe the Christmas Cabin of Carnaween is an important production that is fitting to see this time of year. You realize that what is really important in life are the simple things. I highly recommend taking your family and friends to see this show."
