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.

SHARD

James Joyce Centre

After a sell-out premiere in LA and a BBC radio adaptation broadcast to great acclaim, we are proud to bring Stewart Roche’s SHARD to an Irish audience. ​You wouldn’t think it to look at him now but Spooner was once quite the whizz in finance.
