Peregrine Readings


The Peregrine Readings is a touring prose reading series, started in 2010 as part of the Touring and Dissemination Scheme funded by the Arts Council. The Irish Writers' Centre often gets requests from people to put on some of our great events around the country. The Peregrine Readings does just that. The Peregrine by its definition is a wanderer or a traveler, we have taken writers back to the oral tradition to share their words aloud, and like writers in the oral tradition, they will travel from town to town sharing their stories.

The Irish Writers’ Centre is launching the second series of Peregrine Readings. Writers such as John Connolly, Dermot Bolger, Jennifer Johnston, Alex Barclay, and Kevin Barry will spook, enthral, entertain and inspire audiences in Dublin, Cork, Galway, Kerry, Kilkenny, Longford, Roscommon, and Sligo.

What? None in my county

The Peregrine Readings will run every Tuesday over six weeks from the 26th of April until the 2nd of June. The participating writers will read in the Irish Writers’ Centre and then take the readings on a nationwide tour.

Other writers touring the Peregrine Readings include Jennifer Johnston, John MacKenna, Dermot Bolger, Nuala Ní Chonchúir, Kevin Power, Eugene McCabe, Emer Martin, John Maher, Molly McCluskey, Leo Cullen, Anne Haverty, Pól Ó Muirí, Colette NicAodha, Mícheál Ó Ruairc, Maidhc Dainín Ó Sé and Mícheál Ó Laoghaire.
