This should be a hell of a lot of fun and will mark eight months since I last performed in the Republic, however I am also lining up further shows around the festival and should spring in a Dublin show and probably somewhere else before I fly back here. Although it hasn’t been fully updated yet, please check the Mantua website for more information.
