Currently, he is touring the globe on a bicycle, presenting mini street lectures on “the art of farting”, “yodeling for beginners”, “99 uses for unwanted snot”, and “brain surgery for dummies”. Join Professor F.A.R.T. as he expertly unpacks a staggering amount of quirky and whacky facts you didn’t think you needed to know.

The SCIENCE of EWW! is an hilarious walkabout act, complete with live experiments, hu- morous songs, and audience participation. The SCIENCE of EWW! is a funny act suitable for all the family.

Hand-Cranked Tunes

A wandering music-maker with a magical hand-cranked music box, Fin promises to serenade all folks in earshot. An impromptu céilí is guaranteed. A fun interaction for all the family!

Fin is a wandering music-maker, complete with a magical hand-cranked music box, a box that holds the traditional music of old Ireland.

The Family Geansaí

Nine siblings in one jumper, the Geansaí family are a tight-knit crew. Bound together by a stitch in time, trad music and a comical rhyme, they walk and weave the highroads and byroads of the Emerald Isle. 

Be sure you don’t miss Paddy, Patsy, Pa, Páidí, Podge, Pádraig, Pádraigín, Pat and Patrica as they celebrate in the world’s largest Aran jumper, a geansaí, with eighteen sleeves, 900,542 stitches and the warmth of their Mammy knitted into its very fabric.
