The theatre of Dubliners’ Women

A NEW take on Joyce’s ‘Dubliners’ short stories for theatre, ‘Dubliners Women’ ”shines a light on the lesser known women’s stories – The Boarding House, Clay and Eveline“.

Directed by Sarah Baxter, adapted by playwright and actress Katie O’Kelly and with Maudi O’Carroll, Kate O’Kelly and Gordon Quigley, it’s a Belltable show this Saturday 18, 8pm curtin.

Programme notes tell us that it “brings characters to life in a highly performative and theatrical storytelling style.

“The script is a faithful adaptation of Joyce’s text, finding the humour and quintessential Irish wit in the stories through performance, drawing you in to the inner narratives of the central characters.”

Expect physical storytelling style, humour, music and literature, while acknowledging Joyce’s incisive social commentary. Book on www.limetreetheatre.ie for Belltable, Saturday 18 at 8pm.
