Having spent the past twelve months of intense study and immersion in Connemara's Gaeltact in an effort to speak as Gaeilge - Des Bishop is back on the road again. Drawing from his experiences, the star of the revolutionary RTE show "In the Name of the Fada", comes to Cork Opera House with his live stand up show "Tongues".
"Tongues" deals with Des?s most formidable challenge yet, taking the ultimate step towards Irishness. Already attracting rave reviews, "Tongues" also explores the religious side of Des's identity, from his early days as an overly theatrical altar boy to his experience with people who have the power to speak in tongues.
