The Ark, Thursday 10th October - Saturday 2nd November

The Haircut! – The Ark presents the world premiere of a brand new show by Wayne Jordan & Tom Lane for Ages 8+.

Labhraidh Loingseach has a secret. He wears his hair long and he has it cut only once a year. Once a year on the same night in the same place and in the same style. But never by the same barber. The Haircut is a cautionary tale with a live musical soundtrack. It's a fairytale remixed and retold. It's a play about secrets and about creativity stifled. About fighting for what you believe in and standing up to power. About music and magic and hair.

Set in a magical modern day Ireland, The Haircut is a new commission written by Wayne Jordan, delivered with ineffable charm by bright new talent Thommas Kane Byrne and accompanied by Tom Lane's vibrant score played by three outstanding musicians.

Presented in partnership with Dublin Theatre Festival as part of the Theatre for Children season in DTF 2019.
