Boss Rob: A Masterclass for Aspiring Artists 2025
Bualadh Bos Children’s Festival
Presented by Darren Yorke, Duffy Mooney Sheppard and Liam McCarthy
Proudly presenting as the world’s greatest ever artist in this exclusive, immersive, interactive, interdisciplinary experience…
Boss Rob may be surprised (if he ever arrives) to discover children amid his ‘aspiring artists’.
Combining spontaneous theatre, comedy, and a visual arts workshop, this show promotes fearless creativity and self-expression. Boss Rob’s Masterclass encourages children to take the lead. Playfully arming themselves against mean-spirited criticism in a hilarious battle of wits against a pompous artist, they may even help this old braggart to rediscover the joy in making art.
Suitable for children aged 8-12 and their families.
- Age 8 – 12 years | Limited Capacity
- Offsite venue: Limerick City Gallery
