This ten story, 3 hour cd is adapted from wonderland productions’s epic audio walk of dubliners – a walk where you tour james joyce’s dublin on headphones with the text of his classic 1914 stories playing radio drama like, in your ears.
Background: in 1914 the epiphany that awoke the world's imagination to the battered yet tumultuous city of dublin, her streets, and her people, was a modest book of short stories that would become a defining irish classic, james joyce's dubliners.
Wonderland productions' dubliners is a self-guided audio-walking tour on headphones that invites you to tour the streets and historic buildings in which joyce set his stories, whilst you listen to his classic stories in situ, as they are told and performed for you on headphones by a large ensemble cast of twenty-two celebrated irish actors led by the renowned joycean actor barry mcgovern.
This will be of huge interest to those who have walked dublin with joyce’s stories playing in their ears, those who would like to, those studying joyce’s work in schools or college, tourists and joyceans and literature lovers everywhere.

“a thrilling experience. Actors vocalise joyce’s dialogue from the book, with the wonderful barry mcgovern narrating sections that aren’t direct speech. Masterful sound design adds background noise and music that perfectly complements the scenes” the dubliner
“brilliantly delivered. An atmospheric journey through edwardian dublin with flawless dramatisations of the stories with the acclaimed barry mcgovern at the helm. Its spine tingling stuff. ” metro
“an accomplished adaptation. A treat for any fan” the sunday times
