Jon Kenny is touring with a new play CROWMAN and will be performing it at a theatre near you shortly. The play received standing ovations every night during a run in Cork Midsummer festival at the Granary. 
In it Jon plays numerous characters but the primary one is Dan, a man in his 50s who is living alone. He is a loner and feels himself an outsider looking in on the community but he discovers during the play that he is not as much an outsider as he thinks. 
When he hears about the passing of a dear friend, he is forced to look back on his own troubled youth and face up to his demons. The play is at times poignant and tragic but also has a warmth and humour as Jon slips seamlessly in and out of the many uproariously funny characters. 
The people he depicts are surreal and humorous but tinged with tragedy and Jon plays each with his amazing ability of character acting and hilarious humour.

 

Review of 'Crowman' by Colette Sheridan 
Irish Examiner 23 Jun 2018 

Set in a sparsely decorated kitchen, this intimate one-man show starring Jon Kenny (D'Unbelievables) feels like a window into the soul of a lonely bachelor, Dan. A crow-hating man who noisily tries to shoo the blighted birds away, Dan measures out his life by the amount of funerals he has to attend every week. They are social occasions with the added bonus of refreshments. 
Dan, who vacillates between high comedy by mimicking TV celebrity chefs; and pathetic admissions, including attending Mass just to connect with another human by shaking hands, is a master at distraction, But one day, hearing a death announcement on the radio. his world is shattered. 
Kenny is brilliant in the role, conveying the gamut of emotions. Katie Holly's script is strong, conjuring up a life of quiet desperation.

Starling Blue are Hannah O Brien Liebe Kelly Louise Steele and Patrice Doherty. Their unique acapella vocal sound has gained them much attention over the last number of years. Their shows bring you on a rollercoaster of emotions as they harmonise their way through many eras of music. Listeners are treated to stunning solos, rich ingenious harmonies and banter throughout. Earlier this year after releasing their arrangement of Every Breaking Wave Starling Blue have since recorded more arrangements in a live accapella setting and will be releasing shortly. Later this year Starling Blue hope to release their original material while also taking their shows around the country.

Spend a relaxing evening with author and psychologist Shane Martin as he engages you through his stories, humour and some of his poems. The focus will be on what science has shown to make people happier, what gives them more meaning and purpose in life, and what measures they can take to lead to overall greater health.

'...inspiring, engaging and great belly laughs.'

'Empowering and entertaining'

' A rare opportunity for the general public to access his practical advice and no-nonsense ideas'

The Bon Jovi Story details the band’s history from their breakthrough album Slippery When Wet up to their present day inclusion into the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame.
