If ones whose idea of a good night out, particularly in these times, is a good laugh out and a humorous take on life as opposed to theatre or film, the following night, Friday the 10th December starting at 8pm, Cork Opera House will host the ever popular and internationally recognised Irish comic Jason Byrne who returns to Ireland and indeed to Cork along with his trademark quick fire manic wit for what promises to be a fun night.
And if that’s not enough for music fans there is still one more thing to look forward to this weekend in Cork with “Man in the Mirror: The Music of Michael Jackson” a tribute in music to the works of late and great Michael Jackson also showing at the Opera House at 8pm on Sunday 12th December.
