And finally his live podcast shows.
From Toronto, to London, to Sydney to Galway, Blindboys live podcasts are consistently sold out affairs where he captivates his audiences in an quietened intimate atmosphere. Drawing from his years of live performance experience, Blindboy can make a crowd of 1200 feel as though they are in a small room with only a handful of others. He reads from his book, and he speaks with a guest. It is not an interview, but rather an intimate chat which seeks to replicate a private conversation in a public space through the language of theatre. These live shows are spontaneously endearing and heartwarmingly engaging, there’s usually something in here for everyone to enjoy. Sometimes he may have a guest who is a person with an interesting life story to tell, and other times he might interview a person who is an expert in their field. Notable past guests are Spike Lee, Bernadette Devlin and authors Kevin Barry and Roddy Doyle. 2019 has been a good year for blindboy. His book “boulevard wren and other stories” was a bestseller. He released his TV series “Blindboy undestroys the world” on BBC. As well as the continued and thundering success of The blindboy podcast both online and as a live show. |
