Megan hears a voice whisper to her from the shadows in the pub. It is a voice like no other she has ever heard, and its tenderness and poetry quickly charm, console and woo her heart. For this voice she would give her first kisses and, in these kisses, her heart. This plain barmaid would fall passionately in love for the first time, not with her husband-to-be, but with a ghost!
Megan's father, Timothy O'Flaherty; her fiance, Michael O'Donovan; the Widow Peggy; the Rag Lady and the entire village have much to say about this situation as they fill the stage with Irish wisdom and hilarity!
