Mummer's Day, or the Feast of Saint Stephen, marks the Christian faith's first martyr (or protomartyr).
In several Christian countries, his feast day is a public holiday.
In Ireland, Saint Stephen's day is referred to as 'Lá Fhéile Stiofáin' or 'Lá a Dreoilín,' meaning the Day of the Wren or Wren's Day.
