The Michael Players RBV perform Christopher Shimmin's 'The Charm'

The Michael Players RBV perform the Manx dialect play, 'The Charm.'

 

This play was written by Christopher Shimmin in 1912 in collaboration with Sophia Morrison.

This 2017 performance was presented in the Centenary Centre in Peel, the location of the play's premiere over 100 years earlier.

It was presented in the Manks Concert organised by the Manx branches of the Celtic Congress, Celtic League, and Mec Vannin.

It was after this performance that The Michael Players were awarded the Reih Bleeaney Vanannan ("Manannan's Choice of the Year") award for their outstanding contribution to Manx culture over the past 60 years.
