Ulster Bank Dublin Theatre Festival




The Ulster Bank Dublin Theatre Festival started its mammoth programme of 363 performances in 22 venues from 10 different countries yesterday, and goes on until October 17th.

As well as a huge variety of shows to take your pick from, there is also a long list of special events.

"In Development" gives you the opportunity to see major Irish theatrical works before they hit the stage (free but booking essential).


"Panel Discussions" looks at topics including the recent turbulence of the world economy, the ethical, environmental and social responisibilities of supernational companies, and the influence of the audience on artists' works (free and not ticketed).

"The Wonderful World of Hugh Hughes" includes an invitation to help him create his next show with an audience, and a documentary about him after which he will be available to answer questions (both free and not ticketed).

The full programme is available on the festival website and information is also being posted on their blog.

Mount Herbert Hotel is just 2 DART stops from the city centre for anyone looking for accommodation for the festival.

Enjoy the show(s)!
