After a sell out six week tour of Ireland in 2009 ‘Faulty Towers … The Dining Experience’ is back. Basil, Sybil and Manuel return to serve you dinner and a feast of comic delights, some familiar, some off the cuff but all with a ‘Faulty’ seasoning and a guarantee to keep you laughing all the way to the desert. Basil is manic, Sybil domineering, and Manuel – of course – is hopelessly language-challenged. Everything that can go wrong, does in some beautifully controlled chaos. Just don’t mention the war! ‘Faulty Towers … The Dining Experience’ has been winning fans and accolades at Edinburgh, Melbourne and Adelaide Festivals for the last three years. Featuring all the best gags and a great meal, the show is a loosely-scripted, pitch-perfect '13th episode' of the TV series which develops the characters made famous by John Cleese, Prunella Scales and Andrew Sachs.

 

Of all the performances to emerge from Ireland in the past decade, nothing has carried the energy, the sensuality and the spectacle of Riverdance. Experienced by over 21 million people worldwide across four continents and boasting a worldwide television audience in excess of two billion people - Riverdance is a truly global phenomenon. An innovative and exciting fusion of Irish and international dance, Riverdance propels traditional dance and music into the present day, capturing the imagination of audiences across all ages and cultures. This is the last chance to see the show rightly described by the Irish Times as "the original... the best" and experience the magic that is Riverdance!

 

Aidan Harte's 'Inferno' is a collection inspired by the notorious Italian masterpiece. Dante cast a cold eye on society and it's an example the artist takes seriously with sculptures and etchings in an impassioned Expressionist style. Official opening at 7pm on June 18th.

 

After leaving college, Ó Briain began working at RTÉ as a children's TV presenter. At this time he also began performing his first stand-up gigs on the Irish comedy circuit. He admitted, "I did the trip from Donegal to Dublin to play to six people; then I turned round and drove home again. I did about three or four years playing to a lot of bad rooms, but learning as I went. It's not bad when someone gives you 40 quid for standing up and telling jokes. I remember thinking: 'This is the life.'"

 

*BEWARE: This show is not for the faint hearted or for the easily offended!* Following on from his 5 sold out shows at the Olympia Theatre and his sold out national tour this January, Keith Barry is back with his brand new show - The Asylum! Fans battled through the treacherous snow and elements in January to catch Keith in his most controversial and outrageous show to date and were not left disappointed. Many people who showed up hoping to buy tickets at the door were unfortunately turned away as Keith took to the stage in a jam packed sold out theatre.
