Set sail with Ireland’s fearless Pirate Queen in the astounding new aerial show for all the family.
With original music, powerful storytelling, and gravity-defying circus, Grace: The Story of a Pirate Queen brings the legend of Grace O’Malley vividly to life. From stormy seas to royal courts, join Granuaile on a remarkable voyage across history.
Created on the wild Atlantic shores of Achill Island, this unforgettable show celebrates bravery, imagination and the power of standing tall (or swinging high) in the face of impossible odds.

What People Say
Swashbuckling and cheeky… The circus performers defied a strong breeze – and interloping sheep – to turn the pirate queen’s story into an acrobatic show for several hundred people.
The Guardian
A very impressive performance
NetworkIreland.ie
The Grace O Malley production was amazing seemed to represent the real story in a really funny, humorous way. Grace O Malley’s journey not only through land and by sea defending the west of Ireland but culminating in riding up the Thames to visit queen Elizabeth, it was really well produced and the actors were amazing. I loved it.
