Tickets for the talk cost €16, with limited tickets left.

Seán, known as Nature Boy, has dedicated his life to birdsong, nature, and spreading awareness about the beauty—and vulnerability—of the natural world.

His story is one of passion, discovery, and staying true to yourself.

In this sound-packed, illustrative talk, Seán will bring you on a beautiful journey through Irish birds, sharing their sounds, stories, and struggles.

Along the way we get to know Seán, whose hypersensitivity to sound has proven both a struggle and a strength.

At once inspiring and cautionary, Seán’s journey illustrates the beauty and importance of sound, and what listening can tell us about the state of our natural world, and how it can also heal and nourish the soul.

Advance tickets for all shows are available online at www.thesourceartscentre.ie, or by phone from the Box office on 0504 90204.
