Join us at Dripsey Castle for an evening with one of Ireland's sharpest observers of everyday life, as Colm O'Regan brings his acclaimed show Gallivanting with Words to our historic grounds. A playful romp through the words, phrases, and quirks that reflect the very soul of Ireland, this is a night of storytelling, wit, and genuine warmth - celebrating the language we use without ever really thinking about it, and why it says so much about who we are. "Not only is Gallivanting with Words a treasure trove of fascinating facts, it's also funny. Very funny." — John Creedon Settle in for an intimate evening in the heart of Dripsey Castle Estate, with light refreshments served and a chance to meet the writer himself after the show. The event will take place in the ballroom of the manor house.
An evening of lingustic exploration and mingling, join us this Session Season for wonderous laughter and delight.
