SUMMARY:Angela's Ashes The Musical
DESCRIPTION:In a major musical adaptation\, Frank McCourt’s memoir ANGELA’S ASHES returns to the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre stage in an emotional telling of a childhood in Limerick and beyond\, featuring unforgettable songs and melodies\, told with a rare lyricism and a warm inimitable sense of humour. \nAs his parents struggle to provide for him and his brothers in 1940s Ireland\, we follow young Frank’s escapades and experiences in a Dickensian landscape peopled by a drunken father\, a helpless mother\, pompous priests\, bullying schoolmasters\, money-lenders and dancing-teachers\, culminating in his defiant escape to a new life in America. \nA haunting score adds to the emotional impact and the humour of the story. ANGELA’S ASHES THE MUSICAL has that rare gift of bringing an audience to tears one minute\, laughing out loud the next – by turns deeply moving and riotously funny. \nDescribed by The New York Times as a “stunning memoir”\, back in 1996 the publication of Frank McCourt’s ‘Angela’s Ashes’ caused a literary sensation. The book climbed quickly to the top of that newspaper’s Bestseller lists and remained there for nearly three years selling 4 million copies in hardback alone. Since then\, the book has sold over 10 million copies worldwide and become a phenomenon continuing to attract a global readership. Angela’s Ashes won multiple accolades including the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Critics’ Circle Award\, was listed in The Guardian as one of the top 50 best-selling books of all time and has been translated into 126 languages.  \nBased on the Pulitzer prize-winning book by Frank McCourt\, ANGELA’S ASHES THE MUSICAL is produced by Pat Moylan\, directed by Thom Sutherland\, with Music and Lyrics by Adam Howell and Book by Paul Hurt.

SUMMARY:Irish National Opera Presents Giuseppe Verdi AIDA
DESCRIPTION:*Sung in Italian with English surtitles** \nThe enslaved princess. Her love for one of her oppressors. Her father ready to wage war. A dilemma both personal and political. All set during a large-scale conflict between Ethiopia and the Egypt of the Pharaohs. \nAida is the grandest of grand operas\, celebrated for its visual and vocal spectacle. At its heart it is also a story of moving private struggles. Aida\, an Ethiopian princess enslaved in Egypt\, is torn between her love for Radamès\, Captain of the Egyptian Guard\, and loyalty to her father\, Amonasro. Her solution leads to betrayal and death. \n“Orla Boylan… she is operating at full throttle‚ sailing above the stave and glorying in her power.”  The Telegraph \n“Gwyn Hughes Jones as Radamès sings superbly\, in an all-conquering voice\, with enough honey in it for any love song.”  The Guardian \n“Orla Boylan… soared with fiery intensity.”  The Spectator

SUMMARY:We’ve Only Just Begun Bord Gáis Energy Theatre
DESCRIPTION:20\,000 tickets sold in Ireland plus successful tours of the UK\, Holland and Belgium. Ireland’s most successful touring tribute show returns home for a short Irish tour in October \nThe show’s creator and promoter Pat Egan says: “The success of the show is down to the outstanding high quality of the production\, brilliant band and singers but ever more so the astonishing voice of Toni Lee recreating to perfection the smoky tones of Karen Carpenter. No other Carpenters show comes near”. \nThe show’s Musical Director and arranger is Eugene McCarthy\, a highly experienced musician of over 30 years who has worked with top Irish and international acts.\nToni Lee is unique\, utterly unique in that she recreates the voice of Karen Carpenter like no one else alive. Her touring show “We’ve Only Just Begun” has been on the road now for over 5 years and it’s simply the best Celebration of the Carpenters music to be heard anywhere in the world. The show features every Carpenter hit with an 8 piece big band and audiovisuals of the Carpenters career highlights. It’s an evening of pure nostalgia where Toni Lee truly becomes Karen Carpenter. \nToni grew up in a music business family. Her dad was a professional musician and her mum worked as an agent. So Toni has been surrounded by bands and singers from an early age. When other kids were playing street games\, Toni was packing her Dad’s car with his instruments and discovering what life on the road was all about! \nShe first came to national attention when she appeared as Karen Carpenter on ITV’S “Stars in their Eyes” which led to the creation of her touring show “We’ve Only Just Begun”\, which this year will return to tour Ireland\, the UK and Holland and will also visit both Australia & America for the first time. With 25 years’ singing experience\, Toni Lee is the ultimate professional performer whose attention to detail and pride in her work is second to none.

SUMMARY:Joanna Lumley It's All About Me Bord Gáis Energy Theatre
DESCRIPTION:The legendary Joanna Lumley comes to Bord Gáis Energy Theatre as part of her first ever live tour\, IT’S ALL ABOUT ME. \nJoanna will take audiences through her hilarious and interesting adventures from her incredible career spanning more than four decades\, recounting some never heard before stories. She will also be joined on stage by friend and producer Clive Tulloh\, who will put to Joanna questions from the audience that they’ve always wanted to ask\, making the show a unique and hilarious night to remember. \nOn announcing It’s All About Me\, Joanna said: “The thought of this tour next year\, travelling across the British Isles and Ireland\, has completely taken over my waking hours. It’s utterly thrilling to start planning the stories I can tell\, and the rapture (and gratitude\, to be fair) with which I shall greet the audiences. Nothing like this has come my way before\, and I may have to be dragged off with a hook at the end of each show. Oh people! This is especially for you from me\, with masses of love. I think it will be fabulous.” \nJoanna Lumley icon\, activist\, comedy actress and all-round top girl is barely off our TV screens and appears to have been a permanent fixture in our sitting rooms since she burst onto our screens as Purdey in the New Avengers in 1976. On this tour she will take us through the random journey that started in London in the swinging 60’s. Beginning as Jean Muir’s house model and muse\, progressing to becoming a full-blown photographic model\, featuring in knitting patterns\, mini-skirts\, toothpaste commercials and the occasional front cover. \nFrom there Joanna will share her stories of her acting career that includes Coronation Street\, On the Buses\, Dracula and as a brainwashed Bond Girl in Blofeld’s lair in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service. Joanna’s breakthrough role was as Purdey\, a part for which over 800 girls auditioned. Purdey propelled her to instant fame and created one of the “must-have” hairstyles of the 1970s – the Purdey bob. She became a pin-up figure for a generation who grew up watching her as the high-kicking action girl. \nAlongside iconic hairstyles Joanna started to develop a nice sideline as adventurer and activist; popping up all over the globe she was often seen gasping at the Northern Lights\, turning her bra into espadrilles and finding the source of the Nile. \nThen as Patsy Stone in Absolutely Fabulous she became a degenerate role-model for a generation. Winning two BAFTAs\, Joanna emerged as one of the best comedy actresses of her generation. For 25 years the adventures of Patsy and Edina have sporadically lurched across our screens culminating in AbFab The Movie in 2016. \nThis intimate night with Joanna tells some of these tales and more as we gallop through almost 50 years in this business we call show.

SUMMARY:Frank Pig Says Hello Gaiety Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Twenty-five years on\, Pat McCabe’s FRANK PIG SAYS HELLO returns this October to twenty theatres across Ireland\, in a new touring production that brilliantly captures the legendary original.\n \nStarting at the Gaiety Theatre Dublin\, moving to a community venue in McCabe’s hometown of Clones and then traversing the length and breadth of the country\, the tour will bring one of the great classics of modern Irish theatre to a new generation of audiences.\n \nFRANK PIG SAYS HELLO tells the desperately funny and tragic story of the life of Francie Brady growing up in a small Irish town in the 1960s and his descent towards a brutal act that shocks his community.  Described as “one of the saddest and funniest tales I have seen” The Irish Times; “a masterpiece” The Evening Herald  and “an extraordinary piece of theatre” The Sunday Independent\, the original production coincided with McCabe’s Booker-winning novel of the same story entitled “The Butcher Boy”.  The play distils Francie’s infamous narrative into a riveting evening of pure\, outstanding theatre.\n \nFeaturing a mesmerising performance by two actors\, Darragh Byrne and John Ruddy\, Frank Pig is regarded as the most vivid\, hilarious and heartbreaking evocation ever seen on a stage of an Irish childhood gone wrong.  From the opening live trumpet notes over an image of a happy boy acting the piglet\, to the breathtaking depiction of a dreadful murder\, this is theatre at its most entertaining and gripping best. \n \nPat McCabe and Joe O’Byrne collaborated on the original Frank Pig Says Hello production for the 1992 Dublin Theatre Festival where it won Best Production\, before embarking on a world tour that began in Clones\, Co. Monaghan and concluded in New York.  Since then the two have produced together Loco County Lonesome\, The Dead School\, and The Revenant.  Set design is by leading Irish artist Robert Ballagh.  The show was recently recreated for the 2017 Dublin Theatre Festival winning high praise for exceptional young actor Darragh Byrne and the multi-talented actor\, trumpet player and cartoonist John Ruddy\, known for his Youtube video animations which have had millions of hits worldwide.\n
