    Cork Arts Theatre Youth Project presents

    Columbinus
    by Stephen Karam and PJ Paparelli

    Wednesday 14th - Saturday 24th January (Excl. Sun 18th)


    At precisely 11:17am, April 20th 1999, a small town in Colorado was changed forever with the United States and the whole world watching. Two young men who 'were just like everybody else' walked into Columbine High School armed with almost 50 homemade bombs, 4 top range guns, 7 knives and a mission to create carnage.

    A play sparked by the infamous massacre at Columbine High School in Littleton, 'Columbinus' is a study into the psyche of American teenagers and parents alike which probes the psychological warfare of alienation, hostility and social pressure that goes on in high schools across America and asks the question...

    How many of those who died at Columbine were victims?



    This is the first production from the newly formed Cork Arts Theatre Youth Project and is also the Irish Premiére of 'Columbinus'.



    Starring: Alan Mooney, Liam Murphy, Leo Jeffs, Michael McLaughlin, Emma Gillivan, Shane Doonan, Jennifer O'Dowling and Gemma Collins.



    Directed by Eoghan Moloney. Lighting Design by Jamie Feehily.
    Stage Manager: Danielle Hayes.


    Tickets: Opening Week €10, €8 students and OAP.

    Second Week: €12, €10 students and OAP, Group rate: €8 for 10 or more.

    Bookings: 021-4505624

    Sweeney-Todd-Teaser-Poster.jpg

    Kilkenny Musical Society’s highly anticipated 2015 production of the classic Stephen Sondheim musical masterpiece “Sweeney Todd – The Demon Barber of Fleet Street” will be performed from the 12th to 18th of April 2015 at 8pm nightly in the Watergate Theatre, Kilkenny.

    “Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street” is a musical by Stephen Sondheim based on the 1973 play of the same name. The musical was first produced in 1979 on Broadway where it won eight Tony awards including Best Musical and remains one of Sondheim's most beloved pieces.

    It tells the tale of London barber, Benjamin Barker. Torn from his family and exiled for 15 years on a miscarriage of justice, Barker returns home to a city as corrupt as when he left. Hell-bent on revenge after learning the agonizing fate of his wife and daughter, he assumes the guise of Sweeney Todd and takes up his razors to dish out a brutal recipe of justice with the help of the infatuated and enterprising meat pie maker Nellie Lovett.

    The society are delighted to welcome back director Christine Scarry in her second show with the society, after directing last year’s hugely successful award winning production of “Michael Collins – A Musical Drama”.
    Christine will direct a stellar cast that includes Kevin Reade and Sarah Brennan in the iconic roles of the tormented and vengeful barber - Sweeney Todd, and the entrepreneurial and amoral meat pie shop owner - Mrs. Lovett. They will be joined by David Doyle as Anthony - a naive young sailor - and Kevina Hayes as Johanna – Todd's long-lost daughter and Anthony’s love interest.

    Ciarán Dunphy plays the flamboyant Italian rival barber Adolfo Pirelli, with Adam O’Brien as Tobias Ragg - Pirelli’s downtrodden apprentice.
    The lecherous Judge Turpin will be played by Fergal Millar, while Alan Grant will play Beadle Bamford - a pompous public official who is deeply loyal to the corrupt Turpin. Delia Larkin will play The Beggar Woman - a deranged and schizophrenic woman who harbours a dark, surprising secret.

    This magnificent cast will be supported by a 12 piece orchestra, a chorus of nearly 50, and the usual high standard production values associated with Kilkenny Musical Society performances.

    Christine will be joined on the creative team by renowned musical director David Wray in his first show with the society. This production will also feature scenic design by John O’Donoghue, and lighting design by Gerry Taylor.

    Hysterically funny yet chillingly intense, this soaring, heart-pounding musical tour de force will have you on the edge of your seat.

    Prices are €15 from Sunday to Tuesday and €20 from Thursday to Saturday. The Society is also offering Group discounts for 10 or more at €15 per ticket.

    Box office opens 1st January 2015 – 056-7761674 or www.watergatetheatre.com.

    Tangled Stars Theatre Company
    Present
    Arthur and Esther
    Written by Ross Howard

    In the wake of public spending cuts, Arthur wrestles with the methods set out in Montgomery Swank’s "28 Ways to Terminate Your Existence and Questions You May Have", the one book he has salvaged from the closure of his beloved library.

    In the wake of her own death, his wife Esther reconciles the ghosts of the past with a hope for the future. This play of regrets and lost chances is full of both outrageous dark comedy, deep sincerity and ultimately a compelling night of theatre.

    Starring two of Cork’s finest actors Kieran O’Leary (Othello, The Good Doctor and For Whom The State Doles) and Gemma Collins (Columbinus, The Gas Heart and Dog Sees God: Confessions of a TeenageBlockhead) in this elemental and affecting play of two worlds.

    This exceptional story explores love, its loss, and the lives we inherit and impose on others.


    Starring Kieran O’Leary and Gemma Collins.
    Directed by Jamie Feehily.

    Making their debut in Dublin, meet Texan Improv troupe, 'PGraph'

    Since their premier in November of 2005, Parallelogramophonograph has been more than just any improv troupe. Fiercely dedicated to the craft and art of improvised theatre, PGraph has held a weekly show non-stop for over 8 years. Early on in their time together Kaci Beeler, Kareem Badr, Roy Janik, and Valerie Ward knew they wanted to do something different onstage. Intrigued by the challenge of telling fantastic fully-improvised stories together as an ensemble, PGraph spent years developing original formats and studying the art of theatre, improv, and storytelling. They’ve toured the country and the world performing and teaching their unique brand of improv with ensemble appearances in over 40 cities in the US, Canada, Australia, and the UK.

    We're pleased to have them perform two of their shows in Dublin on Friday July 31st and Saturday August 1st.

    Friday 8pm Show: "Improvised French Farce" (Followed by the Frolicking Open Jam)
    French Farce is an exploration of the latent comedy in social status. Infidelity, insecurity, and insatiable appetites for wealth and power collide with riveting consequences. No topic is taboo; No neurosis too absurd.

    Rich in physical humor and word play, French Farce is a delight to watch. We turn a blank stage into a French salon, a blank script into sharp social commentary, and “improv comedy” into “théâtre improvisé”.

    Following the show we will be opening up the stage for an open jam with PGraph!

    Doors 8pm, show 8:30pm sharp for both shows.

    Saturday 8pm: Villainy (Followed by the Dark Open Jam)
    Villainy delves into the dark side of the human condition and tell stories that focus on the villains and anti-heroes we all love to hate.

    Villainy explores the thousand faces of evil, cruelty, and hatred, all in one comical, theatrical bundle. The good, sensible person in you will tell you to look away, but you won’t. Indulge in your darker side while we indulge in ours.

    Following the show we will be opening up the stage for an open jam with PGraph!

    Pricing:
    Single Show: €10
    Both shows: €16

    Venue: The Harbour Playhouse
    30 Avenue Road, Portobello, Dublin 8

    For participants attending the Intensive weekend, a special rate of €10 in total for both shows.

    Normal

    By Sean Drugan

    The contents of my brain. Normality: A word that screams one thing but says another. Welcome to John’s apartment. The one he wont leave until he fixes these things he has wrong with him. Come meet Claudia who cares for him or Dimitri who tries to help him, The shrink who doesn’t say much or the fitness instructor who says to much, finally meet his neighbour who is a bit strange, but are we not all a bit strange?

    Normal is very different things to very different people. What does it mean to you?

    Join us for what is hopefully a serious yet humorous look at what makes us human, fragile and all the very things that normality opposes.

Manned by a staff of the finest workers in the hospitality industry, its patrons can enjoy refined food and unparalleled comfort.

All the while the full moon shines brightly overhead..."

    Firedoor Theatre are proud to present The Lovers' Guide to Losing Your Mind, written by Jason Coburn, directed by Alex McKenzie.

    A darkly comic tale exploring love, hate, memory and growing up — all the while tearing apart the rules of live theatre to do it.

    The story follows two ill-adjusted young Dubliners, Andy and Annie, drawn together by a shared sense of uncertainty as to where their lives should be going as they cross into their thirties.

    However, like so many turbulent romances, the story soon morphs into something darker — the tale of two exes, trying to reconcile their conflicting memories from a brief but impactful relationship that ended eight years previously.

    Info:

    December 5th-9th, The Teachers Club, 36 Parnell Square W
    Doors at 7.30pm, show begins promptly at 8.00pm
