Project Arts Centre, Friday 14th November - Sunday 23rd November

Bart’s fabulous life shatters when a mysterious goldfish lands on his doorstep and crashes his wedding anniversary celebrations. His husband Harvey wants to take it in, but Bart says no. Love is on the line, friendships are tested, and Bart faces a slippery predicament – risk making a change or end up all alone.

This flamboyant theatrical extravaganza, with original songs performed by a live band, comes from Shane O’Reilly with co-writer Paul Curley, composed by Denis Clohessy, directed by Ronan Phelan and choreographed by Philip Connaughton.

Writer and co-creator Shane O’Reilly says: “When we first staged Gold in the Water, the response was incredible – audiences laughed, cried and came back for more. Taking the show on tour and returning to Dublin with this fabulous production, feels like the perfect way to celebrate what musical theatre can do.”

Producer Pádraig Heneghan adds: “This show has always been about the power of love and friendship, told with humour and sparkle. To now bring it to stages across the country – from Cork to Kilkenny to Galway and home again to Dublin – is a dream. We’re thrilled to invite audiences nationwide to dive in with us.

ABOUT THE SHOW

The Plough and the Stars was first performed at the Abbey Theatre in 1926. The audience rioted. Now regarded as a masterpiece, this provocative play is an essential part of our understanding of 1916. 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.

Wild Swimming

Bewley's Cafe Theatre

Nell and Oscar meet on a beach in Dorset. It's 1595... or maybe 1610. Oscar has returned from university and Nell is doing f**k-all. They will meet here, on this beach, again and again, for the next four hundred years. Stuff will change. As it does with time. They will try to keep up. A kaleidoscopic exploration of cultural progress, Wild Swimming is an interrogation of gender, privilege, friendship and the thrill of plunging into the unknown.
