After a very successful debut run at The New Theatre last November, 'Click' is back for one week at The Civic Theatre, Tallaght, Dublin 24 from 9th April to 14th April 2013.
Click is a witty yet poignant story of two lifelong friends trying to survive.
On a fishing trip to Croatia, bus drivers 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, why Pauly's wife cheated on him, how Jacko discovered his ex-girlfriend's little secret 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.

“DEAR CORK…” EVERYMAN SEEKS PERSONAL MESSAGES FOR UNIQUE STORYTELLING PROJECT
Letter gathering project led by Carmel Winters, Writer in Residence at The Everyman, Cork. The public are invited to send letters which will become the raw materials as we bring to life a wealth of Cork stories, past and present.
Is there a letter in your keep that tells a story? Or perhaps a letter that hints at a story that hasn’t been told – but should be. The Everyman invites you to forage through your family archive and find a letter that reveals something of the relationship between those who left Cork and those who stayed behind.“We believe there are thousands of such stories, lying in bottom drawers and bureaus, in boxes and inboxes all over Cork and further afield. We invite you, the public, to become an adventurer in this quest by searching out a letter with a story that deserves to be told and sending it to us.” - Carmel Winters
Letters will be collected and read by the Everyman and Carmel Winters, who, along with local theatre professionals, will use a selection of the stories as inspiration for a storytelling project. There is no guarantee your story will be used but every letter will be read and considered. The Everyman aim to make a selection of the letters available for public display, while ensuring that participants’ need for privacy is fully respected and honoured.
Letters can be submitted at your local Library anywhere in Cork City or County and at the Everyman. They can also be photographed or scanned and then emailed to the Everyman directly at dearcork@everymancork.com, or posted to us at: Dear Cork, The Everyman, 15 Mac Curtain St, Cork.

My show “Neil+1” Comedy Improv takes place on Sunday 7th July at 5pm in Smock Alley Black Box Theatre as part of the “10 Days In Dublin” festival.
It’s a unique improv comedy show featuring myself and a random stranger. Completely unscripted, a random member of the audience is selected to come on stage, and that person becomes the “+1″ in the show. He/she is free to say and do what they wish, and it’s up to me to make it entertaining for the audience!
I have been performing comedy improv for many years both in Ireland and abroad. Aside from ‘Neil+1′, I have has also performed improv with No Drama Theatre; Laughalot Improv; Duty Free and most recently, Coastbusters Comedy Improv. I have taken shows to the Body & Soul Festival; TedFest and Impro Fest UK to name but a few.
10 Days in Dublin is a multidisciplinary, open-format, arts festival. This means that the festival includes all types of art or performance: music, comedy, theatre, film, painting, sculpture, and more.

Louise Barry
In association with the Cork Arts Theatre
Presents
Dog Sees God: Confessions Of A Teenage Blockhead.
Written by Bert V. Royal.
Directed by Louise Barry.
Tickets: Opening night - Tuesday 27th August - All tickets €10,
Weds. 21st - Sat. 24th August - €15, €12 concessions, €10 groups of 8 or more.
What would happen if the PEANUTS gang grew up?
Our beloved comic strip characters are re-imagined a decade later as hormonal teenagers with serious issues. CB's beloved dog has died, causing him to question the existence of an afterlife.
His best friend is too burnt out to provide any coherent speculation; his sister has turned goth; his ex-girlfriend has been institutionalized; and his other friends are too inebriated to provide him any sort of comfort.
But a chance meeting with the artistic kid -- the target of bullying -- offers CB 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, while posing the question - do we really want to grow up?
Starring: Jordan Smith, Jamie O’Herlihy, Angela O’Callaghan, Ciara Buckley, Timmy Coffey, Michael McLaughlin, Lauren Lahive and Gemma Collins
“This play is really fantastic.”
“It blew me away.”
“I laughed until I cried”

Hello all!
I am delighted to announce that our play 'Click' is being performed for 2 nights only at Axis, Ballymun next Friday 23rd & Saturday 24th August at 8pm and we would love to see you there!
Click combines the wit of a Dublin Bus driver with an exploration of the difficulties of being a modern man.
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, why Pauly’s wife cheated on him, how Jacko discovered his ex-girlfriend’s little secret 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.
