First Thought Talks: Brigid Mae Power, Emmet Kirwan and Betsy Cornwell in conversation with Rory Hearne
How is the housing shortage affecting artists? Is lack of housing damaging creativity and forcing artists to leave the country? Does having to constantly move disrupt their activities?
Rory Hearne, host of the podcast Reboot Republic, interviews Galway singer- songwriter Brigid Mae Power, Dublin actor Emmet Kirwan and Galway-based writer Betsy Cornwell [who has turned an old knitting factory into a refuge for single mothers] about their experiences.
First Thought Talks are presented in association with University of Galway.
