BAROQUE BRILLIANCE: Handel's Water Music

We know that Smock Alley Theatre resonated with the vibrant sounds of Handel’s ‘Water Music’ in 1742, just a stone’s throw away from Dublin Castle. This would have been at the height of ‘Handelmania’ in the city, with audiences eagerly crowding in to performances of Handel’s music at every opportunity.

The piece captured the hearts and imagination of audiences then as it continues to do now, combining the delicate dances of the Baroque era with the gleaming brilliance of the high Baroque.

Join the bright young talents of the award-winning Irish Youth Baroque Orchestra with their director, Claire Duff, to experience this fantastic piece at Dublin Castle. The Irish Youth Baroque Orchestra is presented in partnership with the Irish Association of Youth Orchestras.

Tony Cantwell – You Cry Weird

Draíocht

If you didn’t laugh, he’d cry. Tony Cantwell has cried for some wild reasons over the years. A TV show about dogs. A drunken run on a treadmill. Getting caught in the nip at school. They’re also all part of the chaos that unfolds in You Cry Weird, his brand new Fringe Award nominated show from Hot Press’s “2nd best comedian in Ireland.” It’s got wildly personal stories, surreal perspectives and more tangents than a bronzed men’s beach. The show also has puns. Star of Last One Laughing (Amazon), Good Boy (RTÉ) and co-host of the Young Hot Guys podcast.

Tallaght’s own Al Porter continues his impressive comeback with his new show ALGORITHM! Having played 4 nights at Vicar St, Cork Opera House and theatres all around Ireland, Al brings his funniest show yet to The Civic. According to reviews, he’s on flying form and better than ever as he dives into family drama and the world according to Al with machine gun delivery, rapid fire laughs and uplifting, fun comedy! It’s a side splitting show from one of Ireland’s very few Perrier Award nominated comics, joining the ranks of Tommy Tiernan and Dylan Moran. And he’s one of our own!
