Join Wilde Irish women on the road in Ireland! BOOK NOW!

Join us Sept 19-26, 2023 on our Ireland Tour

The trip of a lifetime!

If the Irish can claim they saved civilization then we dare to claim that Margaret Maher saved Emily Dickinson’s poems. 

Come with Wilde Irish Women to Ireland and experience the lauded performance that tells the unlikely story of a humble Irish maid’s influence on her reclusive mistress, Emily. Margaret defied Emily’s death bed decree to burn her poems. Her brave independent thinking and courageous action came of being born in Ireland, in a country where poems are respected not burned. There is so much more to the story…

Join the cast of Margaret Maher and The Celtification of Emily Dickinson in Ireland on this performance adventure.

All about the Performances

the Celtification of Emily Dickinson

The performances will be in the Abyfil in Fethard, County Tipperary where Margaret Maher emigrated from in the 1850s. Also in schools in Ardee and Dundalk County Louth, Killarney and Dublin where the poet’s work is on the Leaving Certificate (High School) English Curriculum. 

Rosemary Caine wrote the book and music during the pandemic with Emily’s poems leading the narrative. Margaret’s charm and intelligence broke down her anti-Irish bias at a time when “Help Wanted, No Irish Need Apply,” was rife. The response of Western Massachusetts audiences to Wilde Irish Women’s musical play has encouraged them to spread their love of Emily and Margaret’s story beyond this region to the birthplace of Maggie and playwright Rosemary Caine; IRELAND. Come join us!
