The 24 Hour Plays: Dublin

This event has ended

Abbey Theatre, Sunday 26th January

An unmissable event, for one night only! In January, The 24 Hour Plays: Dublin is back at the Abbey Theatre for its 12th annual fundraising event in aid of Dublin Youth Theatre.

On the weekend of Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th January, and all within 24 hours, six short plays will be written, rehearsed and performed by the best of Irish writing and directing talent and over 30 of Ireland’s most recognised and beloved stars of stage and screen. A team of over 35 theatre technicians, including producers from The 24 Hour Plays® in New York, will facilitate the work.

All proceeds from this special gala fundraising event go directly to Dublin Youth Theatre to support the delivery of their artistic programme. Since the first benefit presentation in 2012, over €150,000 has been raised for DYT through ticket sales and donations. Dublin Youth Theatre is deeply grateful to everyone who has attended The 24 Hour Plays: Dublin over the years, and to over 400 participants who have volunteered their time and talent to this great cause!

The 24 Hour Plays: Dublin is presented under a license and with the participation of The 24 Hour Plays® in New York.

Urinetown The Musical

Malahide Community School

Urinetown is a wickedly funny, fast-paced, and surprisingly intelligent comedic romp. In the not-so-distant future, a terrible water shortage and 20-year drought has led to a government ban on private toilets and a proliferation of paid public toilets, owned and operated by a single megalomaniac company: the Urine Good Company. If the poor don’t obey the strict laws prohibiting free urination, they’ll be sent to the dreaded and mysterious “Urinetown.” After too long under the heel of the malevolent Caldwell B. Cladwell, the poor stage a revolt, led by a brave young hero, fighting tooth

MILK مِلْك

Abbey Theatre

Having premiered in Palestine in 2022, MILK مِلْك is a powerful visual theatre experience concerned with a disaster.

Past becomes present and future loses all meaning other than endless repetition. Inside this rift, which at first appears safe, a group of women look everywhere for their lost motherhood. Coming to the Abbey Theatre for eight performances only, this powerful and determined performance
