Tarry Flynn on DVD

    Hi,

    My local drama group is doing the Patrick Kavanagh play called 'Tarry Flynn'.

    I was just wondering if anyone knows where I can purchase a copy of the play on DVD?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks!

    Are you looking for a movie version of Tarry Flynn or a recording of a performance of the play?

    If it's the former, I think you are out of luck, I don't believe one exists.

    If it's the latter, I would suggest your best bet is to try contacting drama groups which have already put on the production (I believe Ballally players have performed it recently) to see if they have a copy of their own performances.

    That said when you buy the rights to perform a play it tends to exclude recording of the performance, Not to say it doesn't happen, but it may make the groups reluctant to share any recording they do have!


    Good luck with it!

    Yeah. I don't believe it was ever made into a film. Theres been a few adaptions over the years; PJ O' Connors in the 70s and Conal Morrisons recently which is what Balally / Mill Theatre did this year which was very good, very visual. It was very much a directors play.
