Real-life married couple  team up for 'Lovesong' at Cork Arts Theatre 

Dylan Kennedy and Jenny Fennessy work together in Barnstorm Theatre Company 

Dylan Kennedy and Jenny Fennessy in 'Lovesong', returning to Cork Arts Theatre. 

When married couple, actors Jenny Fennessy and Dylan Kennedy, first met at the rehearsals for a children’s play they were in, Fennessy admits she thought Kennedy was really arrogant. On the other hand, he felt she was really boring. That was in 2008 in Kilkenny, where the pair were working with Barnstorm Theatre Company. They toured the country with the show for 16 weeks.

Fennessy, who stars opposite Kennedy in Lovesong which they’re bringing back to the Cork Arts Theatre following a production of it four years ago, says meeting Kennedy was not a case of love at first sight.
