About this event
McGovern, celebrated for his mastery of Joyce and Beckett, will read from Dubliners, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Finnegans Wake, and Ulysses, along with Joyce’s poetry. As he explains: “I want to offer a potpourri of Joyce’s works for both newcomers and longtime admirers.”
Barry McGovern is one of Ireland’s most distinguished actors, with an illustrious career in theatre, film, and radio. Renowned for his performances of Beckett, including I’ll Go On and Krapp’s Last Tape, McGovern has also earned acclaim in productions like Waiting for Godot and Endgame.
