The best part of experiencing concerts at the Farquhar Auditorium are two-fold: fantastic acoustics and comfortable seats. The auditorium is an intimate space, perfect for hosting rock icons. Fans can get fired up by songstress Pat Benatar’s dynamic vocals and the inimitable guitar skills of her husband Neil ‘Spyder’ Giraldo. The Farquhar Auditorium is thrilled to present this concert Wednesday July 10th at 7:30 p.m.

Pat Benatar has always been a rule-breaking trail-blazer and now, after more than three decades in rock 'n' roll, she’s a bonafide living legend. Songs like Love is a Battlefield, Hit Me with Your Best Shot, and We Belong are as unforgettable now as they were at the dawn of MTV when Pat emerged fearless and fighting—forging a path for other female rock stars around the world.

Neil Giraldo has been a professional musician, producer, arranger and songwriter for over four decades. He changed the face of the pop charts throughout the 1980s with his collaborator, muse and wife, Pat Benatar. More than just an explosive steel-bending guitar player, Giraldo’s innovative vision helped him create the signature Benatar sound.

Dylan Moran: "Yeah, yeah"

Award-winning Irish comedian Dylan Moran brings his new show Yeah, Yeah to the Farquhar Auditorium on June 30. Dark, dry and relentlessly sharp, Yeah, Yeah is Moran’s critically-acclaimed roller coaster ride of emotion, hilarity, poignancy and joy as he deliberates life, love and disappointment with remarkable observation. Moran toured Yeah, Yeah to sold-out theaters in the UK and Australia; he toured the show throughout Europe, becoming the first professional English-speaking comedian to perform in Russia.
 
Regarded internationally as the premier comedian of his generation, Dylan Moran is a comedic force on stage and screen. He received a BAFTA Award for his Channel 4 sitcom Black Books and starred in the hugely popular films Shaun of the Dead, Run Fatboy Run and Notting Hill. He is currently filming Calvary alongside Brendan Gleeson and Chris O’Dowd
