Join our friends at the James Joyce Tower & Museum (https://joycetower.ie/?mc_cid=98cb32997f&mc_eid=UNIQID) on Sunday, 14 September 2025 at 2pm for Earwicker’s Dream at the DLR Lexicon.
Following on from the success of their tour around Joyce’s Ulysses, Janet Moran and Ronan Guilfoyle join forces again, this time to explore the intricacies of Joyce’s final novel. Janet is an award-winning actor and playwright, and Ronan is one of Ireland’s best-known jazz musicians, with an international career spanning more than forty years. Earwicker’s Dream is a concert piece that unites spoken word, jazz composition and improvisation, and explores the central characters in the book.
Joyce’s brilliant text will be illuminated by a the award-winning actor Janet Moran who will deliver the spoken word element and a wonderful band featuring the legendary guitarist Nguyen Le – a giant figure in French jazz and famed for creating diverse projects with songs from different traditions and languages – Michael Buckley, Ireland’s leading jazz saxophonist, and the brilliant young Irish drummer Ariel Tessier who completes the band.
This will be a programme full of humour, pathos and insights into Joyce’s world, all accompanied by an improvising group at the top of their game.
* Janet Moran – spoken word
* Ronan Guilfoyle – bass, composition
* Nguyen Le – guitar
* Michael Buckley – saxophones
* Matthew Jacobson – drums
This is part of our Joycenights festival celebrating the week that James Joyce spent in the Martello Tower in Sandycove, 9-14 June 1904.
