Brian currently has two one man shows, which he wrote and performs himself, both directed by Raymond Keane of Barabbas. The shows make us of projection, spoken word, live and recorded music, to tell true autobiographic stories, linking Ireland and Africa.

 

Gis a Shot of Your Bongos Mister was first performed in Dublin Fringe Festival in 2011 and went on to play in venues around Ireland and in New York. It was selected by Project Arts Centre and Fringe as one of only 5 plays from over 300, from three years of Fringe to play at the Turnaround Festival in 2012.
