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.

Recently performed during the centenary of the Easter Rising, Olivier Award-winning director Sean Holmes returns with this production of Sean O’Casey’s absorbing play. Set amid the tumult of the Easter Rising, The Plough and the Stars is the story of ordinary lives ripped apart by the idealism of the time. The residents of a Dublin tenement shelter from the violence that sweeps through t

Macbeth

Smock Alley Theatre

Critically-acclaimed VOLTA THEATRE COMPANY returns to Smock Alley with a new production of Shakespeare’s gripping tale of murder, totalitarianism and how a person loses their soul. In a politically unstable world, where witchcraft and satanic cults chip away at the status quo, a man temperamentally unsuited to kingship seizes the crown by violent means. Corrupted by absolute power, he becomes vengeful, paranoid and completely unhinged in his bid to establish a dynasty bloodline. Shakespeare’s timeless story about the horrors that lie in wait beyond societal breakdown has non-stop act
