| Mosaic of St. Patrick from the Irish College, Rome |
Just preparing to begin our celebrations here in the Eternal City.
Plans for the day include Pranzo (main meal) at the Abbey Tavern Pub -- suppose to be the definitive Irish pub in Rome and it is only about a 30 minute walk from the NAC.
Mass at 6pm at St. Suzanne
The Irish College celebration begins at 8pm.
’Dracula’ Bram Stoker’s classic tale of danger, mystery and excitement is the 2012 St Patrick’s Day entertainment presented by the Pontifical Irish College. Anxious to impress his prospective father-in-law, Jonathan Harker sets off from Donegal to Transylvania to assist a mysterious nobleman who is keen to buy property in Ireland. But all is not what it seems at Castle Dracula. Has Jonathan stumbled upon a vampire? Does the Count really intend on bringing death and mayhem to the Emerald Isle? And can he be stopped before it’s too late?
The play is produced by Conor McCarthy and directed by Damian McCaughan.
