Darren Shan brought vampires to a whole new audience with The Cirque du Freak series, which sold in the millions and was made into a movie last year. He then wrote about werewolves and demons in the ten part Demonata, which began with Lord Loss. He is now an international phenomenon with sales of approximately 15 million copies. His new book, ‘The Thin Executioner’ is a stand alone fantasy novel. As you would expect from Darren Shan, master of horror, this is no ordinary fantasy. It is the unusual tale of a boy who wants to be an executioner when he grows up. Come along and hear Darren talk about his books and his inspiration. You can ask him a question too - if you dare....

‘The Story of the Little Old Man’ is the latest show from Galway based children’s theatre company Branar. It tells the delicate tale of friendship between a lonely old man and a stray dog that no one wanted, with the help of enchanting puppets (made by Suse Reibisch) and live music (by Morgan Cooke). This heart-warming story is told with grace and amazing attention to detail and can be understood in any language. Adapted for stage by Marc Mac Lochlainn. Artistic advisor Bjarne Sandborg, Teater Refleksion, Denmark.
