SUMMARY:CYCLOPS
DESCRIPTION:Adapted and directed by Liam Hourican​ \nWith live period music from two acclaimed musicians! \nLeopold Bloom finds himself in the proverbial lion’s den of Barney Kiernan’s\, subjected to the simmering antisemitism of the blinkered Citizen and a jeering entourage. A toxic mix of heavy drinking\, Dublin pub banter and political discourse culminates in an explosion of xenophobic violence and an assault with a biscuit tin. \nIn CYCLOPS\, Volta draws on its roots in cabaret and sketch comedy to conjure Joyce at his comedic best. \nAfter three sold-out runs of its critically-acclaimed Counterparts & A Little Cloud\, Volta Theatre Company returns to Bewley’s Café Theatre with an adaptation of the CYCLOPS chapter from Ulysses\, as part of the Bloomsday Festival 2026. Accompanied by a live band Joyce’s riotous and timely satire on Irish nationalism and Dublin drinking culture leaps blisteringly from the page.

SUMMARY:The Whiteheaded Boy
DESCRIPTION:“ – Glory be to God! Is it notions she has? – Aye\, notions. But they’re notions that cost me money!” \n\n\nThe table is set for Denis\, arriving home from Dublin where he’s studying Medicine at Trinity College – a source of enormous pride for his besotted mother and of great resentment to his five other siblings. \nBut when word comes that he may have failed his exams again\, the final straw breaks. Threats of deportation\, lawsuits\, bribes and counter-bribes escalate\, as the family twist the fate of their whiteheaded boy to suit themselves. Never mind about the girls. \nA smash hit when it premiered at the Abbey Theatre 110 years ago\, Lennox Robinson’s The Whiteheaded Boy is a raucous\, high-stakes tug-of-war between a generation who will do anything to keep their standing in the town and the young\, who just want to be free to do what they want to do. \nAward-winning director Annie Ryan re-imagines this bawdy and bold Irish classic with a contemporary eye and a sharp feminist wink to the past. Notions abound!

SUMMARY:Grace by James Joyce
DESCRIPTION:Dive into the world of James Joyce with a fun and lively Bloomsday Festival theatre performance at the James Joyce Centre. \n“O’Neill does a terrific job…. comic ironies abound…” Irish Independent \n‘O’Neill brings considerable energy and skill as the narrator’ Nomoreworkhorse \nThe James Joyce Centre presents Grace by James Joyce as part of the Bloomsday Festival on 14-16 June. \n“Grace” from Joyce’s Dubliners is a tale of booze\, bombast and religious confusion that brilliantly satirises the role of the Catholic Church in early twentieth century Irish life. When struggling salesman\, Tom Kernan (who also appears in Ulysses)\, is found drunk and injured in a pub toilet and brought home in disgrace to his long suffering wife\, his friends hatch a plot to save him from his errant ways. \nThis acclaimed production features the actor and comedian\, Terry O’Neill\, who brings to life Joyce’s rare collection of characters and takes you on a hilarious journey from purgatory to paradise. \nDubliners\, first published in 1914\, is one of the great short story collections in the English language. By exploring the lives of his fellow Dublin citizens with unflinching realism\, Joyce revealed truths both blasphemous and transcendent. \nShowtimes:\n14 June: 1pm\n15 June: 1pm\n16 June: 4pm & 6pm \nTickets are €20.
