About the Event
Sean is a vibrant storyteller, poet, musician, and actor with a passion for breathing new life into ancient myths and legends. Fascinated by what these timeless tales reveal about the modern human experience, he delves deep into the rich tapestry of folklore, particularly the stories rooted in the Mourne region. Sean's work weaves together a diverse collection of narratives, from the epic adventures of the Ulster Cycle to the wit of Mullah Nasruddin Hoja, and the evocative interpretations of Martin Shaw, Robert Bly, and Daniel Morden. With every performance, he rekindles the power of these stories, making them resonate for today's audiences.
