Bridget and Doalty are part of the close-knit community of Baile Beag, where life revolves around the hedge school and the familiar people and places they have always known.

But with the arrival of the English surveyors, the community faces changes that could alter the landscape they know so well. As always in Translations by Brian Friel, there is room for both humour and moments that make us think.

Maire and Manus, each face their own hopes, ambitions and uncertainties about the future.

Maire is determined to learn English and find new opportunities beyond Baile Beag, while Manus is deeply connected to the hedge school and the community he calls home. As change arrives, their hopes and relationships are put to the test.

As the survey progresses, his work brings him into contact with a community facing changes to its language, culture and familiar way of life.

Hugh is the schoolmaster of the hedge school in Baile Beag, where Greek, Latin and Irish are taught to the local children.

A man deeply rooted in his language, his learning and the traditions of his community, Hugh finds himself facing a world that is beginning to change around him.

As the English surveyors arrive and the familiar place names of Baile Beag are translated and anglicised, Hugh must consider what these changes mean for the community he has spent his life teaching.
