Don’t Tell Dad About Diana

Don’t Tell Dad About Diana

Bewley's Cafe Theatre, Monday 13th April - Saturday 2nd May

Dublin, 1997. Two friends prepare to compete for the crown of Alternative Miss Ireland with their Princess Diana drag act, under the nose of their hardline nationalist families.

As they race through the city towards competition night, Diana's death sparks the unravelling of their secret, their friendship and their plans to leave Ireland. A high-energy, fast-paced two-hander packed with comedy, courage and coming-of-age chaos.

Macbeth

Smock Alley Theatre

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.

Shakespeare’s timeless story about the horrors that lie in wait beyond societal breakdown has non-stop act
