Abbey Theatre, Thursday 26th September - Saturday 5th October

A live redubbing of Pier Paolo Pasolini's controversial 1975 film Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom.

Pasolini's Salò Redubbed daringly transposes Pasolini's notorious final film to Ireland. This radical adaptation by Dylan Tighe explores the beliefs and values behind “coercive confinement” and their enduring impact on the power relations and injustices of contemporary Ireland. Pasolini's Salò Redubbed is a fearless allegory of abuses of power, structural violence, masculinity and class supremacy.

Please note: This performance contains graphic scenes of a violent and sexual nature.

One hundred years ago, on February 8, 1926, Sean O’Casey’s play about the 1916 Rising, The Plough and the Stars, sparked one of the most controversial and memorable nights in the history of the Abbey Theatre, when there were protests in the theatr
