With the Jonathan Swift Festival celebrating 300 years since the publication of Gulliver’s Travels this month, Craicademia is rising to the occasion and going positively Brobdingnagian as it marks the major milestone with a night of big ideas and even bigger craic.
Expect three lively talks from Dr Brendan Twomey, Harry Burton and James Anderson, each programmed for a Lilliputian sized 30 minutes, with Q&As, pizza and pints available upstairs afterwards at Rascals Brewing’s Loft.
Billed as a smart, spirited evening for anyone who likes their intellectual stimulation served with a side of satire, organisers have one simple request – “Please leave your tiny spears and petty political grievances at the door; applause is encouraged, but there is absolutely no heckling.”
Don’t make them break out the ropes.
7.30pm, Wed 18th November, Rascals Brewing, Inchicore.
