What's on

Captivating live performer Jack O’Rourke composed music to Brendan Behan poetry during his recent residency at the CCI. Inspired by traditional music and sean-nós, there are also nods to classical and contemporary influences.

Described by Irish Music Magazine as “a deep and powerful performer”, traditional folk singer Macdara Yeates leads our special Gaulín as part of Behan 100.

A host of special guests celebrate the centenary of one of Ireland’s best-loved writers, with performance, song and lively discussion that reveal how post-war Paris influenced Brendan Behan’s writing.

A relaxed but stimulating festival for the mind and the senses with discussions, workshops, concerts, apéros and stand-up!
