Monkey Backstage presents...
THE BEAR'S TUXEDO takes you on a cosmic journey through the torn flamboyant fibres of one man's being. That man is the mercurial Billy Sendoza. Billy is a gay Californian funeral director with an attachment to the arcane and a penchant for the preposterous. Join Billy as he swaps the sands of Southern California for the unforgiving scorched desert of Mexico on a journey of personal redemption.
THE BEAR’S TUXEDO is a surreal exploration of how one man’s inability to separate his dreams from reality contaminates and distorts not only his own life, but the lives of those around him.
Heaven or hell, he'll send you there in style…

Attic Productions
Present
Marvel
Elizabeth Moynihan's latest play, "Marvel", is set in a hotel room in Dublin on the night of September 28th, 2008. The play examines the relationship between Marvel (a young girl trafficked from Liberia, working as an escort) and Dion (a married trader in financial futures and hedge funds), tracing its development in scenes alternating between this climactic night and the events of the preceding year. Exploring the dynamics of sexual and economic power, the play burns with their particular passions, but also serves as a devastating commentary on the cycle of boom and bust – and the effect it has on its human victims.
Directed by Aoife Spillane-Hinks
Cast: Alma Eno & Liam Hourican
Written by: Elizabeth Moynihan
Produced by: Camille Donegan and Yvonne Ussher of Attic Productions

The Vortex
by Noël Coward

Opening Night: Tuesday 18 February 2014
Book Now
Rehearsal Pictures - Click Here
"You wouldn't be so perfect if you had wasted any of your time in sincerity."
Noel Coward’s sparkling mix of wit and cocktails, The Vortex sets out to beguile and provoke in equal measure.
Enter the bright and charming world of flamboyant socialite Florence Lancaster and her talented young son Nicky. Florence is a fading beauty enjoying an affair with a much younger man, Tom. Nicky, a successful composer, returns from Paris with his new fiancée, Bunty. When Tom and Bunty fall in love, Florence and Nicky face a crisis. Their brilliant repartee and easy wit is slowly revealed to be a superficial surface under which lie real, human struggles. In confronting his vain, self-absorbed mother can Nicky break free from his own demons?
The Vortex was first performed in 1924 where its subject matter of sex and drugs scandalised London. Now, 90 years on, it is just as delightful, thrilling and, in the words of the author, ‘un peu shocking’.

Acting Out Premieres Tits Up, a new comedy as part of the International Dublin Gay Theatre Festival.
5 May, 6 May, 7 May, 8 May
at OUTHOUSE THEATRE@105 CAPEL STREET
In this spiky comedy set in contemporary Dublin, we meet Susanne and Clive, a couple who seems to have it all - the big house, money and social standing.
But Susanne’s sharp (and very politically incorrect) tongue is of little use, when her Polish cleaner Magda, who has plans of her own, reveals that Clive is not all he seems.
Forced to reflect on the lies they have told each other as well as the lies they’ve told themselves, can any of them emerge from the carnage unscathed?
Acting Out is Ireland’s innovative LGBT community theatre performance group.
PREMIERE. Duration: 70 mins
Director/Writer: Sean Denyer
Tickets €15/€10 (matinee) at http://gaytheatre.ticketsolve.com/shows/873511528/events?show_id=873511528 selling fast.0 -

Some people never go crazy… what truly horrible lives they must live.
In LEPER + CHIP the boy, Leper meets the girl, Chip. Boy meets girl in the middle of a battering, boy wrecks bus full of pensioners, girl gets chased by machete wielding maniac and love without madness isn’t love at all...
“The speed and precision of the performers, aided by minimal, emphatic design, make a breathlessly exciting 45 minutes.”
-Peter Crawley, The Irish Times
"Its sharply written, neatly constructed, and brilliantly performed by Conall Keating and Amilia Clarke Stewart. Shiels appears to have wrung every last performative drop of sweat from these two vibrant young actors who hurl their story in our face without a shred of energy in reserve, and with endearing force, speed and feverish elan."
-John McKeown, Irish Independent
"The combination of the script and the actors’ performances created moments of pure hilarity in Leper and Chip’s dark world of murder, beatings and alcoholism. Here Shiels, Coffey and company have created an unmissable feat that you can’t take your eyes off."
-Katie-Ann McDonough, meg.ie0 -

Mag Mell by mountainsandheather, on Flickr
Video sample :
Welcome to the mythical island of Mag Mell off the west coast of Ireland. An isle fabled for eternal peace and happiness is about to be rocked as the greed and materialism of the 21st Century collide with the ancient wisdom and beauty of Mother Earth.
...
A wild mix of dance, music, theatre and puppetry give expression to these whirling forces as they lead to a climax of transformation and ultimately redemption.
Theatrically captivating from the start, the show creates a carnival atmosphere - dark, dangerous and anarchic at times, light, happy and delightful too. Humour abounds! There is no time to think as you enter a mesmerizing world of music, colour and rhythm and become absorbed by a thrilling story that unfolds with originality and imagination.
Walk into this new and exciting landscape that is the result of a unique collaboration by Jon Kenny (actor), Des Dillon (artist), Benny McCarthy (musician) and Conal Ó Gráda (musician).
The show is presented by Whobeganit Theatre Co. Ltd., founded by Jon Kenny (actor & comedian), Des Dillon (artist & puppeteer), Benny McCarthy (accordeon player & composer) and Conal Ó Gráda (flute player & composer).
They are joined by Colm Murphy (renowned bodhrán player), Ciaran Ó Maonaigh (fiddle player & TG 4 Young Musician of the year 2003), Caitlín Nic Gabhann (concertina player & award winning dancer from Riverdance) and Katie Holly (actor & singer/songwriter).0 -
Hello All!
Just a quick post to let you all know that our play 'Click' by Michael Collier is currently running at The Viking Theatre, Clontarf, Dublin 3 until 21st June.
Tickets are only 10 euro & booking is open now by calling 087-1129970
Below is a little info about the play & I have included our promo video!
Hope to see you there!
"How do you get men to talk about their feelings? Simple: Threaten them with death.
On a fishing trip to Croatia, Pauly and Jacko, stroll through a field when Pauly hears a click. Panicking that he has just stepped on a defective land-mine left over from the war he stands rooted to the spot afraid to lift his foot. As they wait for rescue talk turns to life, love, limbs and what it means to be a modern man. As the hours pass not only are their lives in jeopardy but so is their friendship as buried secrets threaten to destroy everything.
Click is a dramatic comedy about two lifelong friends trying to survive. On the surface Pauly and Jacko are your average mates. They go fishing together, or have a pint and talk about football. However when they are put in a life or death situation the truth of their relationship comes out. Is it all banter and no substance? Their past has joined them together but is their present connection really as close as it seems. Click explores the nature of friendship, specifically male friendship and asks whether it is superficial or just unspoken. If you have helped each other through the darkest hours do you really need to talk about them? Click combines the wit of a Dublin Bus driver with an exploration of the difficulties of being a modern man.
“Collier has a soaring touch with dialogue that calls for helpless laughter as often as it hits you in the stomach” – Emer O’Kelly, Sunday Independent
“… a tightly constructed two-hander that exploits its novel dramatic situation to full comic effect.” – Dr. Ian R. Walsh, irishtheatremagazine.ie
Written by Michael Collier
Directed by Caroline FitzGerald
Performed by Aidan Crowe & Ciarán Kenny"

Reckless Theatre Presents
in association with the Corks Arts Theatre
Dog Sees God: Confessions Of A Teenage Blockhead
Directed by Louise Barry
Lighting Design by Jamie Feehily
Venue: Cork Arts Theatre
Dates: Wed 25th June - Sat 28th June.
Dog Sees God returns for 4 nights only to the Cork Arts Theatre a year after their sell out run before they transfer to the International Youth Arts Festival in Kingston Upon Thames in London.
What would happen if the PEANUTS gang grew up? Our beloved comic strip characters are re-imagined as hormonal teenagers with serious issues.
When CB's dog dies from rabies, CB begins to question the existence of an afterlife. His best friend is too burnt out to provide any coherent speculation; his sister has gone goth; his ex-girlfriend has recently been institutionalized; and his other friends are too inebriated to give him any sort of solace. But a chance meeting with an artistic kid, the target of this group's bullying, offers CB a peace of mind and sets in motion a friendship that will push teen angst to the very limits. Drug use, suicide, eating disorders, teen violence, rebellion and sexual identity collide and careen toward an ending that's both haunting and hopeful.
“This show is special, everyone needs to see it.”
"...was astounded by the show and the cast as they brought to life in, at times, entertaining manner but always with a clear message, what today is like for teenagers/young adults using characters that people could relate to and see how they changed when a certain age hit... an enthralling show..."
Suitable only for 14+. Contains swearing.
Early booking is advised. Tickets: €15; €12 conc., Groups of 5: €50

“Such skill, hilarious! 5 stars!”
- Daniella Moyles, iRadio Presenter
“Funny, engaging, and mind-blowingly skilful. One of the highlights of this years’ festival”
- Dave Bourn, ImproFestUK
“A member of the audience was invited up on stage to take part in an improvised story. This sounds like a high-risk concept and perhaps it could go wrong on the night, but Neil and his guest were superb. And the uncertainty of it all, the possibility of failure, adds to the drama.”
- Dave Madden, DublinCulture.ie
“Improvisation is about confidence, trust, support and taking risks…all while being funny. Now imagine doing that with a total stranger. I found the entire show to be engaging and hilarious but what was really spectacular is how Neil made a non-improviser off the street, the star. The way he was able to support everything and at the same time keep the show funny and interesting was pure mastery. For a truly unique experience, I highly recommend this show.”
- Will Luera, ImprovBoston, Artistic Director Emertius0 -
