THE LAST LEPRECHAUN is the story of the only leprechaun left on earth,
accidentally left behind when the other leprechauns went to live in a
secret magical place beneath the earth. But this leprechaun is not
exactly alone- he's being chased by a gang of angry fairies who had
been denied access to the underworld, as well as a greedy Irishman who
plans to make his fortune by capturing the leprechaun and his gold.
Molly O'Brien, a young American girl visiting her relatives in Ireland,
helps the leprechaun reunite with his friends and family. The songs
reflect the spirit of the Emerald Isle as the tavern folk sing the
rousing "Go, Go Laddy" and the last leprechaun reminisces about the
olden days ("There Once Was a Time"). When Molly and the leprechaun
visit the Fairy Kingdom, the Pixies serenade them ("The Pixie Song"),
but they still are in danger from the evil fairy, "Eileree". In the
end, all is well, and despite their problems, the folks from this small
Irish town will be "Stayin' in Kildoonan", as Molly sings a final
"Farewell" to her new friends. There are two sets: a small cottage in
the woods and a Fairy Kingdom, which could be as simple or elaborate as
you choose to make it.
