Christmas In Spiddal

Peggy Webber

It takes a village to tell this joyous send-up of a holiday/variety show in the small village of Spiddal*, Ireland. Shay Duffin tells the heartwarming tale of his sixth Christmas Eve, when his missing-in-action brother returned to Dublin at midnight to surprise his whole family during World War II. Irish limericks, songs, and even a visit from an American Yankee, Santa Claus. (*Spiddal was the name of a village in Ireland, because there was a Hospital there.)
