Narrated by local story teller Peter McCune, the Danny Boy Legend travels back to the 1600’s to one of the most picturesque areas in all Ireland – the Roe Valley and the town of Limavady.

But it’s a story that travels far beyond Ireland’s shores to America with those who emigrated during the famine and others who left their homeland aboard the magnificent liner Titanic in 1912 as it sailed out of Cork harbour, little realising the fate that awaited them.

The Legend tells of the O’Cahan Clan and their proud Chieftain Donnell Ballagh O’Cahan. It relates how they lost their lands during the plantation period in Ulster and how this noble last chief of the Clan ended his days as an untried prisoner in the Tower of London.

The story explains how these cruel acts of retribution against the O’Cahan Clan were to spawn a lament of immeasurable beauty and inspire another member of the Clan, Rory Dall O’Cahan, a blind harpist, to compose a tune of such pain and passion that it would eventually touch the hearts of people all over the world.
