Poems That Reflect the World That We Live In

Why do we walk past the things that matter most?

MIRRORS is a thought-provoking spoken-word performance by Brendan Conboy that explores the world around us—and what it reveals about ourselves. Through a powerful collection of poems, Brendan turns his attention to the beauty, brokenness, absurdity, and complexity of everyday life.

From roadworks to relationships, loneliness to belonging, war to peace, homelessness to hope, these poems shine a light on the things we see every day but rarely stop to consider. Some are humorous. Some are challenging. Some are deeply moving. All invite us to look beyond the surface and reflect on what it means to be human.

At its heart, MIRRORS asks a simple question: when we look at the world around us, what do we see reflected back?

Insightful, honest, and often unexpected, this performance holds a mirror up to modern life and encourages audiences to see familiar things with fresh eyes.

Because sometimes the world is not only a reflection of who we are—it is a reflection of who we are becoming.
