One of a series of events to mark the opening of the new Seamus Heaney Centre building at Queen’s University, this walking tour seeks to evoke resonances between poetry and place. Join actors Maria Connolly, Daniel Cunningham, Chris Grant and Debra Hill as they perform one poem from each of Heaney’s major collections, together with one or two surprises, at various points around the Queen’s campus. Each tour lasts approximately one-hour. Participants are asked to dress appropriately for an outdoor event. Curated by David Grant.
