This highly acclaimed musical written by Benny Andersson, Bjorn Ulvaeus (ABBA), and lyricist Tim Rice (Evita, The Lion King) develops the ancient and distinguished game of chess into a metaphor for romantic rivalries and East-West political intrigue. The principal pawns form a love triangle: the loutish American Grandmaster, the earnest Russian champion, and the Hungarian-American female chess second, who arrives at the international championships with the American but falls for the Russian. From Tyrol to Thailand the players, lovers, politicians, CIA and KGB make their moves to the pulse of this monumental rock score.

Numbers including One Night in Bangkok, Anthem and I Know Him So Well, are international hits.

The Kerryman

Glass Mask Theatre

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. When 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. But despite themselves, th
