In the heart of Dublin, Seán takes you into the world of Irish mythology - and he’s genuinely one of the best at it. His stage presence is something to watch. Over 90 minutes he brings to life the adventures of Na Fianna and the ferocious demi-god Cú Chulainn, weaving epic battles, tragic love stories and cursed enchantments into a performance that lingers long after you leave.
This isn’t a guided tour or a history lecture. It’s a show - the kind of traditional Irish storytelling that has been passed down orally for centuries, now performed live for a modern audience. Seán has featured on RTÉ, Virgin One, and in the Irish Independent, and his 168 five-star reviews say the rest.
The show runs in English with two brief intermissions.
Come in not knowing much - that’s part of the fun. You don’t need any background in Irish mythology to enjoy this. Seán builds the world as he goes, so the names and stories make sense even if Cú Chulainn means nothing to you yet. If you do know your myths, you’ll spot the layers he adds to familiar tales.
The intermissions are built into the 90 minutes. There are two brief breaks during the show, which gives you a chance to absorb what you’ve just heard - or to quietly marvel at how much ground has been covered. It’s not a sit-in-silence experience; audiences tend to react, laugh and get drawn in.
It’s a good fit for curious teenagers and up. The mythology Seán covers involves battles, heartbreak and enchantments - nothing gratuitous, but the stories have real weight to them. Younger children can attend (infants on a lap, prams and strollers welcome), but the show is pitched at an adult audience.
Book ahead if you’re visiting in summer. This show sells out regularly during the tourist season in Dublin. With free cancellation available, there’s no downside to reserving your spot early and adjusting if your plans change.
