Four leading Irish writers present original, five minute plays, performed by one actor for one young audience member and their lucky guest.
Theatre for One is a very special, state-of-the-art performance space – and this Christmas, for the very first time, we are opening it up to younger audience members.
Conceived and created by the Olivier award-winning designer Christine Jones and designed by LOT-EK architects, one lucky young audience member at a time (accompanied by a grown-up – if they choose) will be able to enter the specially-designed booth, and experience the magic of a brand new play, performed just for them.
Two of the plays are written for children aged 4 – 7, and two for those aged 7 – 10.
Produced by Landmark Productions and Octopus Theatricals, in co-production with the Abbey Theatre, it features short plays for young audiences by four of Ireland’s leading writers – Roddy Doyle, Sonya Kelly, Louis Lovett and Pauline McLynn – and promises a unique theatrical thrill for audience members young and old.
Supported by Accenture and Dublin City Council.
