Gate Theatre, Friday 27th September - Sunday 27th October

AGREEMENT is set in April 1998 as the main political parties in Northern Ireland, the British government and the Irish government, all under the watchful eye of Senator George Mitchell, try to hammer out a deal that could pave the way for peace in Northern Ireland.

The production revisits the days leading up to the signing of the historic accord and features the main players involved in the discussions, including Mo Mowlam, Senator Mitchell, John Hume, Tony Blair, Bertie Ahern, Gerry Adams and David Trimble.

AGREEMENT is produced by Belfast’s Lyric Theatre, and was first produced as part of the events to mark the 25th anniversary of the signing of the Good Friday Agreement. The production was nominated for a UK Theatre award for Best New Play and won three BroadwayWorld Ireland Awards including Best Director. As part of this Gate presentation, the production will run as part of the 2024 Dublin Theatre Festival.
