HoCoPoLitSo’s 43rd annual Irish Evening is a creatively conceived event, a virtual Irish pub beamed to ticket-holders’ homes. Featuring award-winning author Joseph O’Neill, the evening includes an introduction by Daniel Mulhall, Ireland’s Ambassador to America, author Belinda McKeon serving as emcee, an Irish dance lesson from Maureen Berry of the Teelin school, and musical performances by Jared Denhard, Laura Byrne, Sean McComiskey, Jim Eagan, and a rousing sing along led by former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley. Books and signature cocktail boxes available.
