Work In Progress

This event has ended

Smock Alley Theatre, Friday 7th April - Saturday 8th April

Capitol Theatre Company is back with the extended version of ”Work in Progress”, adding a second act to the 20 minute one-act-play performed at Scene and Heard 2023.

With an imminent deadline fast-approaching, Wilson Reynolds is unable to complete his project for his theatre company, no matter how hard, or how long, he tries. Although his trusted, but somewhat peculiar, friend is sat by his side, the muses just won’t budge and Wilson feels like he’s staring at a blank page. What exactly is it that's preventing him from completing this work in his small, strange apartment?

“Work in Progress” is a two-act-play that explores the subjective experience and the illusion of choice while examining the nature of theatre and raising questions about what it really means to be free.

Date:
Friday 7th April - Saturday 8th April
Time:
8.00pm (matinee show at 3.00pm Sat 8th)
Price:
€10 - €15
Address:
Smock Alley Theatre, 1662, Exchange Street Lower, Temple Bar, Dublin 8, Ireland

Before by Pat Kinevane

Civic Theatre

From the team that brought you ‘Forgotten’, ‘Underneath’ and the Olivier Award-winning ‘Silent’, ‘Before’ is a play with much music, set in Clery’s of Dublin, on the very day this iconic department store shuts – for good. Pontius is inside, trying to choose a gift for his estranged daughter, whom he hasn’t seen for almost 20 years. He will meet her in an hour. This father’s journey is both beautiful and strange, from the isolation of his Midlands home, to the madness of O’Connell Street. Some folk are impossible to buy for… Presented By: Fishamble The New Play

The Pillowman

Gate Theatre

A totalitarian regime. A missing child. A killer on the loose. A writer is arrested when a series of murders, bearing a chilling resemblance to his own stories, come to light. As two detectives chase a confession, they discover a truth much stranger than fiction. From Martin McDonagh, the award-winning writer of The Beauty Queen of Leenane, The Banshees of Inisherin and In Bruges comes a savage tale about the stories we tell to keep the monsters at bay. Directed by Olivier Award winner Lyndsey Turner, THE PILLOWMAN will open at the Gate Theatre on 9th July, with previews from 4th July.
