Class by Iseult Golden and David Horan.

A parent-teacher meeting goes very wrong in Class – a play about learning difficulties: in school, in life, wherever. Brian and Donna's son is 9 years old, and he's struggling. That's what his teacher says. Says he should see a psychologist. But Brian and Donna – recently separated – never liked school, never liked teachers. So are they going to trust this one? And should they? Class is an explosive triple confrontation in a classroom over learning difficulties, love and entitlement. Funny, heartbreaking and beautifully observed, with rave reviews and a sold-out run at the Abbey Theatre, Class is new Irish writing at its finest.

Edinburgh Fringe First Winner 2018.
★★★★★ “Three terrific performances, two exceptional writers and directors, and one extraordinarily brilliant script”The Arts Review.
★★★★ “One hell of a Class breakdown”, “an emotionally explosive triple confrontation… riveting intensity”Mail on Sunday.
★★★★ “A Different Class”… “hugely entertaining and immaculately performed scenes from a school room… It is a rare, successful narrative about nice people”The Irish Times.

Wise and Flannagan, pass the night watching surveillance screens, feeding unseen dogs, and arguing about music, conspiracy theories, and the meaning of their work. What are they actually guarding and who are the strangers who lurk close by?

Dead Pioneers

The Workman's Club

Dead Pioneers emerged as a dynamic extension of vocalist Gregg Deal’s performance art, seamlessly blending music with critical cultural commentary. Rooted in the same themes of identity and resistance that define his visual work, the band’s sound acts as a powerful platform for addressing the complexities of Indigenous experience. Deal harnesses the raw energy of post-punk and alternative influences to challenge prevailing narratives, using lyrics that provoke thought and evoke emotion. Just as his performance art confronts the legacies of colonization and systemic marginalization, Dead Pi
