SUMMARY:Lear’s Shadow
DESCRIPTION:The New Theatre presents the Irish premier of “Lear’s Shadow\, Colin Hurley’s one-man take on King Lear. \nA man in a dressing gown shuffles in\, carrying a box.  From the box he pulls the objects\, people\, mistakes\, laughter and regrets that add up to a life. This is an old fool of an actor sniffing around Shakespeare’s great play. This is dreamtime\, playtime\, clown time. At the end of Shakespeare’s play Lear dies. His last words are “Look\, there.” So what happens after you die? Well\, that’s where this show starts. \n  \nColin Hurley has acted in Shakespeare plays with The Royal National Theatre\, The Royal Shakespeare Company and The Globe Theatre\, as well with other theatres and in other plays. He has also appeared in film and TV across a fifty year career. \n  \n‘Hurley delivers a surprising\, irresistibly human and comic Lear. This is more an ordinary man with a man’s vanities and vulnerabilities\, yet there is an air of decayed nobility about him.’ **** British Theatre Guide \n  \n‘ A superb one-man performance…Throughout the 70-minute performance. \nHurley captivates’ **** Theatre and Arts Review \n  \n‘Hurley’s performance is a tour de force… He engaged with the audience brilliantly.. well worth watching.’ North West End \n  \nProduced by Andy Crook.

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 KerryMan
DESCRIPTION:Cait is an artist newly returned to Dublin\, determined to get her life back on track and prove to her mother that she’s not a total fuck-up.  Eoin\, a proud Kerryman\, is working in finance for his sins. He has very different plans- graft hard\, retire early\, and go home to run his parents’ farm in South Kerry. \nWhen they meet\, Cait knows one thing: Eoin is absolutely not her type. He’s obsessed with GAA (and his mother) and wouldn’t know an easel from his elbow. Meanwhile Eoin can’t decide if Cait is the woman of his dreams or an agent of chaos with notions. \nBut despite themselves\, they are pulled into a can’t eat\, can’t sleep\,  rollercoaster romance. The Kerryman is a story of two clashing hearts and minds. We don’t get to choose who we fall for – but it’s the choices we make afterwards that can turn our entire world upside down. \nA new play by Eva O’Connor for the Glass Mask Theatre Stage.

SUMMARY:The Madonna of Asia
DESCRIPTION:Once Asia’s brightest star\, Rin Asari (Mai Ishikawa) was poised for global fame with the release of her first film in English. But soon after\, she vanished. It’s 2014. Rin\, in her forties\, lives quietly in Dublin. By chance\, she connects with Tara (Clare Barrett)\, a woman living in Hong Kong\, bringing up the past she has tried to forget. When Rin receives an offer to return to the screen\, she must confront what she left behind. \nInspired by the golden age of Hong Kong cinema\, THE MADONNA OF ASIA weaves together live performance\, vibrant projection and multilingual storytelling. Moving between myth and memory\, this piece traces a woman’s journey from icon to exile – and back to herself. \n. \nWritten\, directed and featuring design by Linbury Prizewinner Choy-Ping Ní Chléirigh-Ng 吳彩萍. \nPerformed in English\, Japanese and Cantonese. Japanese and Cantonese dialogue is captioned in English. Run time one hour. \n\n\n.\n\nFeatured by Chris McCormack in The Irish Times as one of 2026’s headline plays.\n\n.\n\nPraise for Choy-Ping’s work: \n“Formally\, thematically\, politically\, there is very little work being made in Ireland that dares as much as Choy-Ping’s.”\n— Carys D. Coburn \n“To be displaced from a place is also to be displaced from language. Ní Chléirigh-Ng’s practice creates a space that foregrounds these themes in new modes of performance across technical and substantive levels\, equally displaced from theatrical tradition.”\n— Michelle Chan Schmidt \n\n\n“Choy-Ping Ní Chléirigh-Ng’s set design is a stroke of genius.”\n— Chris O’Rourke\, The Arts Review\, on Boyfriends by Ultan Pringle\n\n.\n\nSupported by Dublin City Council Project Arts Grant and Incubation Space Award\, Irish Theatre Institute\, PROPEL Programme with Strollers Network\, Rough Magic Theatre Company and The New Theatre Artist in Residence Programme.

SUMMARY:SIMPLE CREATURES

SUMMARY:Double Indemnity
DESCRIPTION:Hollywood icon Mischa Barton (The O.C.) returns to the Gaiety Theatre stage in Double Indemnity\, the gripping adaptation of one of the greatest crime novels of the 20th Century – the story that inspired Billy Wilder’s film noir classic. \n“I loved her like a rabbit loves a rattlesnake” \nLos Angeles\, 1930’s. Amidst the wreckage of the Great Depression\, Walter Huff\, a sharp-eyed insurance salesman\, has built his career spotting scams. But when he meets the dangerously seductive Phylis Nirdlinger (Barton) to discuss her husband’s life insurance policy\, he finds himself drawn into a web of lust\, greed\, and betrayal. Together they plot the perfect crime: murder the husband\, cash in the policy\, and disappear into the Californian sunset. \nBut passion can cloud judgement\, and guilt can corrode the most perfect of plans. With each step increasingly risky\, and as mistrust simmers\, will Walter and Phyllis outsmart the law – or each other? \nJames M. Cain’s thrillingly amoral masterpiece of murder\, deceit\, and mystery is adapted for the stage by Tom Holloway and directed by Oscar Toeman.
