John B. Keane's masterpiece has always been a joy and a challenge for any production. This presentation is brought to the boards by The Machine and Liam Rellis and stars a couple of actors who are no strangers to working together - Mick Lally and Mary McEvoy of Glenroe fame. Keane's play is one of violent personalities, the hardships of changing rural life and of family love. Lally plays Bull McCabe whose passion for the land he has worked on his entire life takes a hold of him. This new production, directed by Michael Scott, sees him again team up with Michael McCaffrey who created the celebrated setting for his production of The Matchmaker.

Coming soon to counties Cork, Kerry and Mayo - venue info and performance dates can be seen here:

Hi there. I'm part of a non-profit production team that is raising money for a play running from the 9th to 19th September as part of this year's Absolut Fringe Festival. Instead of doing the "same ole" pub quiz, we're holding a horse race night in Cassidy's this Tuesday night at 7pm. You're welcome to come on the night just for the craic and to support the play by placing small bets on the single-bet races. However if you, or you and a friend, would like to pool together to place 20 euro bets on the sponsored races, whereby you get to name the horse and jockey and trainer, your bet will have a 1 in 8 chance of winning 100 euro!

To let me know if you'd like to place a 20 euro bet, contact Chris between now and Tuesday on <snip>. (If you'd like to place a bet but can't attend on the Tuesday night and should win the bet, you will be contacted with information regarding collecting your reward money).

Thanks for your interest, and we hope to see you in Cassidy's, on Westmoreland street, this Tuesday at 7pm for a great night in support of Fringe!

Wakeup Call written & directed by Joseph Ryan
Custard and Jam by Rosalind Ni Shuilleabhain & directed by Jill Thornton

Wakeup Call
Over the course of one sleepless night, Mort, invading the bedroom and recruiting the help of his reluctant and sleep-deprived best friend Jeffrey, attempts to win back/take revenge on the ex who just dumped him.

Custard and Jam
Have you ever questioned just how normal the various thoughts and voices swimming around in your head are? Have you ever had a conversation in your head, telling someone else all the things that you would never be able to say in reality? Do you remember the pressures of the teenage mind- CAO worries, doubts about your physical appearance, young love? This play deals with all these interesting topic’s and as no-one would willing admit to hearing voices, it is all taboo. But what would happen if the voices took over, if your own voice shrunk into the back round? Join us as we explore one girl’s search to deal with all these fears and doubts and to answer the vital question “which voice is my voice?”

Written and directed by members of Dublin Youth Theatre.

Fringe 2-in-1 at Project Upstairs, which runs as part of Absolut Fringe on September 17, 18, 19, 9pm.

PREGNANT?! (45 mins) is a surreal performance lecture delivered by a pseudo-pregnant male. Described as a "magical and totally original and accessible experience" (London Artists Projects), PREGNANT?! brings its unique deadpan humour to Dublin following development work at the Battersea Arts Centre and Shunt (London).

After a short interval, Project Arts Centre will keep the bar open and you are free to wander in and out of the second half with Origamibiro & The Joy of Box (1 hr). Electronic music meets abstract visual experiments, resulting in an explosion of double bass and ukuleles, infra-red video and origami flower shredding. "Its not just guitars and beats that find themselves looped up by the trio, but the tear of paper, the flicked corner of a book and the rip of sticky tape. And as if the plethora of sounds weren't enough, they come packed with lashings of visuals." - BBC Manchester Online

To be included in the draw for 2 free tickets to the opening night on Thursday 17th September and a CD from Origamibiro, send the name of any two of the evening's performers to ene@toupstage.com by Monday 7th of September. See video of both shows here

Chapter Theatre Productions presents The Mai by Marina Carr.
Cast: Anntoinette Hilliard, Judy Donoven, Tess Healy Maguire, Claire Jackson, Maria O'Callaghan,
June McCarthy, Marina Lawlor and Taylor Lane.

Set in the Irish midlands whose landscape becomes the arena in which Marina Carr's Gothic epic
expands, The Mai revolves around Millie's narrative of the desperate loves of her mother, a woman
faithful to a man incapable of loyalty. For years she has spent hours contemplating Owl Lake and
waiting for his return. In a house of proud, mad and sometimes comical women, she and her daughter,
her sisters, her aunts and her grandmother, a Spanish beauty and sixty-year widow of a
nine-fingered fisherman, weigh their second chances as the legend of the lake unfolds in Marina
Carr's exquisite and fearless tragedy.

I Can't Remember Anything by Arthur Miller

A whimsical little pieve full of wry humour set in New England. It gives us an insight into the long-standing friendship between the middle-aged widow Leonora and her late husband's best friend, Leo.

Bar and Ger by Geraldine Aron

This widely acclaimed tragicomedy tells the simple tale of the bond that develops between a brother and sister against a backdrop of domestic unrest. Through intensely dramatic snapshots, ranging from the poignant to the hilarious, we follow Barry and Geraldine on their path to adulthood, all the time recognising their antics and altercations shades of our own past.

One Night Stand Off by Martin Lindsay

This is a comedy about singles and social graces after a night that went so right goes so wrong the next morning. Rachel and Greg hit the town - to the surprise of both they wake up in bed together the following morning - an awkward situation made worse as details from the previous night begin to filter through.

Tickets: €15/€12
