SUMMARY:The Plough and the Stars
DESCRIPTION:Marking 100 years since it premiered on the Abbey Stage\, Sean O’Casey’s The Plough and the Stars returns\, in an exciting new production directed by Tom Creed \n\n\nAt its original production in February 1926\, the audience rioted. Now regarded as a masterpiece\, this provocative play is an essential part of our understanding of Irish history and Irish theatre.  \nThe residents of a Dublin tenement shelter from the violence that sweeps through the city’s streets. A revolution that will shape the country’s future rages around them. What kind of Ireland awaits them?   \nSet amid the tumult of the Easter Rising\, The Plough and the Stars is the story of ordinary lives ripped apart by the idealism of the time.  \nDirector Tom Creed said: “This production is a chance to remind us that O’Casey was a trailblazing innovator as well as a social realist of great humanity and compassion. The opportunity to stage the 100th anniversary production of the play at the Abbey is a rare and precious one – to honour its extraordinary legacy and to remind us how it continues to reflect Ireland back at itself a century after its legendary debut.”  \nCast will be announced in the coming weeks.

SUMMARY:Macbeth
DESCRIPTION:Critically-acclaimed VOLTA THEATRE COMPANY returns to Smock Alley with a new production of Shakespeare’s gripping tale of murder\, totalitarianism and how a person loses their soul.\n \nIn a battle-ravaged land where power is concentrated in the hands of warlords known as Thanes\, society is held together by unwavering loyalty to the king. But outside the heavily fortified strongholds of the Thanes\, strange rituals and satanic cults chip away at the status quo. \n \nWar-hero Macbeth\, cousin to the king\, is seduced by this witchcraft. He and his wife\, shattered by the recent loss of a child\, seek to fill the void with power. They hatch a plan to murder the king\, unleashing a cycle of violence that destroys everything they prize: security\, friendship\, peace of mind\, their love for each other and ultimately their souls.\n \nShakespeare’s timeless story about the horrors that lie in wait beyond societal breakdown has non-stop action\, suspense\, terror\, and some of the mightiest language ever penned.\n \nWarnings: Violence\n \nWRITTEN BY William Shakespeare \nDIRECTED BY Norah McGettigan \nLIGHTING DESIGN BY Colin Doran \nSOUND DESIGN BY Denis Clohessy \nVIDEO DIRECTOR David Crann\nVIDEO EDITOR Elton Mullaly\nDRAMATURG Bridget Hourican\nFIGHT INSTRUCTOR Ciaran O’Grady\n \nCAST Myles Feerick\, Liam Hourican\,  Sinead Murphy\, Gillian Roberts\, Jim Roche \n\n\nABOUT THE COMPANY\nVOLTA is a new company with a mission to bring high quality productions of classical works to a wide audience.
