Don’t Tell Dad About Diana

Don’t Tell Dad About Diana

Bewley's Cafe Theatre, Monday 13th April - Saturday 2nd May

Dublin, 1997. Two friends prepare to compete for the crown of Alternative Miss Ireland with their Princess Diana drag act, under the nose of their hardline nationalist families.

As they race through the city towards competition night, Diana's death sparks the unravelling of their secret, their friendship and their plans to leave Ireland. A high-energy, fast-paced two-hander packed with comedy, courage and coming-of-age chaos.

Don’t Tell Dad About Diana returns to Bewley’s Café Theatre following sell-out runs at the Edinburgh and Dublin Fringe Festivals. Named one of Rolling Stone Magazine’s ‘10 Stand-Out Shows at the Edinburgh Fringe’, as well as Theatre Weekly’s ‘Best LGBTQ+ Show of Ed Fringe’ and winner of both the Bewley’s Little Gem and Fishamble New Writing Awards, this limited run is not to be missed.
