Crean’s story is a testament of human fortitude against all the elements of the Antarctic, his 36 mile, solitary trek to base camp during the Terra Nova expedition to rescue his comrades Teddy Evans and William Lashly has been described by Antarctic historians as “the finest feat of individual heroism from the entire age of exploration”. He was subsequently awarded the Albert Medal for his bravery.

Have you ever wondered why men can't multitask, or why women can’t change a tyre? Wonder no more as the longest running one-person show in Broadway and Las Vegas history, Rob Becker’s “Defending the Caveman” is here to challenge and demystify the differences between the sexes.

Starring the “hysterically funny” stand-up comedian, Tom O’Mahony, the Oliver Award winning show, Defending the Caveman has won the hearts of millions across the globe and now tours Ireland for the first time.

Using psychology, sociology and plain old observational comedy, Defending the Caveman highlights the battle of the sexes – the stereotypical and yet, undisputedly true differences between men and women. Why do men greet each other with insults? Why does it take women so long to get ready? Why can’t men talk about their feelings… And why does it seem that women can’t stop?  Defending the Caveman has become a peacemaker and a celebration of differences between the sexes.

Johnny McEvoy has always been highly acclaimed for his excellent shows and his recent nationwide concert tour received a huge response from his legion of fans.

This nostalgic evening of 'Song and Story' features many of Johnny's Hit Songs, including Muirsin Durkan-Boston Burglar-Those Brown Eyes-Long Long Before Your Time etc. plus songs from his new album. His songs are haunting, evocative and beautifully presented, with many in the folk and ballad style.

Johnny McEvoy has been one of the most enduring and talented singer/songwriters in these islands over the past 50 years. His concert performance is second to none with songs beautifully delivered in truly artistic fashion with story-telling of the finest order.

This a full evening with Johnny McEvoy. No support.

Saturday November 9th 8pm.
