Inspired by Patrick Kavanagh’s A Christmas Childhood poem, this is a touching story
about a young boy whose life was full of wonder, fantastical adventures with his
friends, and a deep connection with nature and the world around him.
However, after growing up moving away from home, he somehow lost his wonder
along the way.
Can his childhood book of memories help him to rediscover it?
Can he reconnect with the magic of childhood once again?
Using a combination of live music, puppetry and animation The Land of a Hundred
Little Hills is a joyful, moving, and action-packed musical tale.
A unique, authentic gig theatre experience for children ages 6+ that vividly and
intimately celebrates the wonder of childhood; exploring how the ordinary can
become extraordinary in the eyes of a child.
The Land of a Hundred Little Hills was commissioned by the Patrick Kavanagh
Centre and Monaghan County Council. Since 2011, Ceol Connected has produced
shows, festivals, events, albums and other arts experiences for children that draw

tour of The Land of a Hundred Little Hills is funded by the Arts Council.
