IrishCentral will be streaming live from the Irish Consulate in New York's monthly First Friday breakfast event. This month: Abbey Theatre director Neil Murray.

Join us live on Facebook at 8:30 am EST on Friday, June 1 at the Consulate General of Ireland in New York's First Friday breakfast. 

The monthly First Friday breakfasts are a staple of the Irish community in New York. They present a great opportunity to connect with the Irish and Irish-American community in the greater New York region. Attendees are offered the chance to promote an event that is of interest to the Irish diaspora in New York or simply hear the latest community, cultural and business news.

Each month features a special guest, and this month it's Neil Murray, the director of Dublin's acclaimed Abbey Theatre, who'll be in conversation with George Heslin, founder of Origin Theater Company. 

We'll be hearing briefly from a few other guests, too, like the Irish Network, Eva Cregan of the Emerald Isle Immigration Center, and IrishCentral's own Bridget Bray, who'll be talking about our upcoming Genealogy Event in Adare, Co, Limerick. 

Hope to see you in the comment section on Facebook
