The new, lionhearted and savagely funny ’48’ by Dublin playwright Gemma Kane, captures the pulsating youth of 1980s Dublin on the brink of irreparable social change through sharp-tongued narrative and visceral movement, set to the backdrop of a haunting, 80s inspired soundscape by composer Dylan Tonge Jones.

In this brand new production, renowned choreographer Alexei Ratmansky brings a fresh perspective to one of the oldest and greatest works of classical dance, giving the audience an opportunity to discover this iconic ballet anew. Copyright: Greystones Guide In a world of strange silences and hidden anxieties two bereaved parents search for a better way to grieve How do we grieve? Why do we grieve? And why are we afraid of those that do grieve? Jane Harris and Jimmy Edmonds’ son Josh died six years ago while travelling in SE Asia. As a way of honouring his memory, they set off on their own road trip across the USA to find out why, in a world where death will always make front page news, real life conversations about death, dying and bereavement are so problematic. Along the way they find other bereaved families with stories of grief that refuse social expectations about moving on or letting go. In a culture that is still uneasy talking about death, dying and bereavement it gives a voice to grief in ways that will move and inspire. With Q and A afterwards.

Make you feel love and loss. Deep down in your soul. Honing his craft by busking for the following 12 years, it was one night at Dublin’s International Bar that the 24-year-old Paddy Casey’s life changed forever. An A&R man from Sony was there, and he liked what he heard. A quick 2-day demo at Sun Studios in Dublin so impressed the label that they released the nine tracks recorded just as they were. And the rest, as they say, is history. With a little hysteria thrown in. Now with five albums to his credit – including this year’s The Secret Life Of – Casey has established himself as one of Ireland’s more interesting singer/songwriters. And catching him live in an intimate venue is pretty much where the man shines brightest… Stolen Chicken is a new musical collective made up some of Irelands top solo musicians. A style of music combining Jazz, Folk, and World, with hints of The Cafe Orchestra (whose guitarist, Drazen Derek is an integral part of the band), this is an eclectic mix of Musicians, guaranteed to give a unique and top class evening of music. Drazen is joined by renowned vocalist, Simon Morgan, whose last album, “Thomas Moore Reimagined” hit the top of the iTunes Charts earlier this year, after featuring as a LyricFm Album of the Week. Also featured is Irelands top Saxophone player Richie Buckley (“something of a genius… a world reputation amongst saxophonists” Irish Times), who’s recorded and toured with artists from Van Morrison to Mary Black. On Piano, is the inimitable Myles Drennan, who’s played with a who’s who of international’s Jazz musicians, and was a long collaborator with the late Louis Stewart. And last, but not least, Nigel Linden, a top traditional piano accordion player, who has toured with artists from Donovan, to Cuban music specialist Cocu Yuan Castellanus. They will also be joined by other special guests. Following on from a sold out performance at The Clifden Arts Festival, and The Creative Connections Festival in Sitges, Spain, where they debuted a number of their original tracks with artists including John Sheahan and Martin Tourish, this evening is a continuation of their fun and creative exploration of World Music. Don’t miss this world class performance, of a group on the beginning of this new, unique musical journey. Copyright: Greystones Guide THE LEGENDARY ROB STRONG CELEBRATES 55 YEARS ON THE ROAD!

Copyright: Greystones Guide Dinner & Screening – 7pm Screening – 8.30pm start When it comes to love, you know you’ve found a true life partner when they’re happy to come and help you bury the body. Even when it’s late at night. And they’re in the middle of a particularly god box set. All of which makes Martin Scorsese’s 1990 true life mobster epic Goodfellas not only a perfect slice of mafia life but also, perhaps, the finest bromance that Hollywood has ever produced. The bond between Henry Hill and James Conway is one that most happy loving couples would kill for. The fact that Henry and James were always willing to kill for the love between them is a big part of what makes Goodfellas so special. And huggable. So, when better to show this beautiful, heart-tugging love story than on Valentine’s night? Especially after you’ve just massacred some fine Italian cuisine. Just like Marty’s mother used to make. That’s the cunning Greystones Film Club plan for Friday, February 14th, as The Whale and The Bear Paw Delicatessen team up for yet another big night out. At 7pm, Claire and co will be offering up a buffet supper of Short Rib Beef & Rich Tomato Ragu Spaghetti, plus Wild Mushroom Risotto with Truffle Oil, along with both Caesar and Caprese salads, and all the fresh bread with red pesto and olives that you and your beloved can gobble down. At 8.30pm, it’s a short stroll downstairs to The Whale, for, hey, the finest Martin Scorsese movie EVER. And don’t you forget it. The fact that these Greystones Film Club screenings come with free freshly-popped popcorn, a full bar and waiter service, well, this is truly an offer you’d be a fool to refuse. And we reckon your loved one will feel the same. Even if it’s a first date. Or it’s just a night out with a good buddy. Happening on Friday, February 14th at The Whale, it’s €30 for the meal and the movie, or €10 for just the movie Doors open 8pm/Show 9pm Tickets €19 – €22 ANDY IRVINE is one of the great Irish singers, his voice one of a handful of truly great ones that gets to the very soul of Ireland. He has been hailed as “a tradition in himself”. As a musician, singer, songwriter, he has maintained his highly individual performing skills throughout his over 50-year career. From Sweeney’s Men in the mid 60s, to the enormous success of Planxty in the 70s and then from Patrick Street to Andy Irvine & Dónal Lunny’s Mozaik, Andy has been a world music pioneer and an icon for traditional music and musicians. As a soloist, Andy fills the role of the archetypal troubadour with a show and a travelling lifestyle that reflect his lifelong influence, Woody Guthrie. To quote the Irish Times, “Often copied, never equalled”, his repertoire consists of Irish traditional songs, dexterous Balkan dance tunes and a compelling cannon of his own self-penned songs.

It sounds simple — two singers, one pianist and a book of great songs, but what Flo McSweeney, Carmel McCreagh and Fiachra Trench are doing takes a lot of talent, experience and sheer guts. Each song is ‘owned’ by the vocalists and turned into something authentic and emotional. Behind them, Trench’s sparse accompaniments are what you would expect of an arranger who has written for Phil Lynott, Paul McCartney, Elvis Costello and many others, and who provided the string arrangement for the Pogues’ classic “Fairytale of New York”. The Irish Times Elaine Scott is delighted to announce another student concert in the Whale theatre where her concerts and showcases are becoming a regular and popular event. Having raised the roof with packed shows since the theatre opened its doors, this springtime concert by piano and vocal students of the acclaimed Elaine will offer audiences a chance to hear some old favourites alongside some brand new talent from students at all levels. Is there anything more powerful than a musician’s first flights of fancy, that burst of expression that has been building up inside through hours – and years – of practice? And just as every child has their own unique voice, each performance here will bring something different to the table, a fact reflected in the sweetly eclectic and highly entertaining setlist for the day! Join D. Cullen in Whale Theatre for “A Song Party With D. Cullen”! D. Cullen is a singer/songwriter from Dublin. He has wowed audiences for a decade under various guises, most recently with his band The New 52, who split in 2019 after releasing the acclaimed album ‘Let Me Sleep’ in 2016 and a string of Number 1 iTunes singles & EP’s (2017’s ‘I Am’ and 2018’s ‘Green EP’ and ‘Helter Skelter’). Under his new moniker, he has already released the singled ‘The Rising Tide’ & ‘My Face’ during the year, and racked up an impressive list of support slots with acts such as Mundy, Bry and Kieron Goss & Annie Kinsella. His latest single “Alright” was released to great acclaim in late 2019, garnering rave reviews and high rotation on Irish Radio and TV, capping off with an esteemed performance on The Late Late Show. The song was produced by the legendary Boo Hewerdine (Eddi Reader/The Bible/Chris Difford/Sia), and features an impressive list of guest musicians, including Boo himself, Jenny Wade of the Dublin Gospel Choir, Rebecca Geary & Cormac O’Neill of Sick Love. “A Song Party with D. Cullen” will feature his recent solo single Alright, along with songs and a little help from some very special guests. Do not miss this night! Copyright: Greystones Guide Cyrano de Bergerac By Edmond Rostand, in a new version by Martin Crimp James McAvoy (X-Men, Atonement) returns to the stage in an inventive new adaptation of Cyrano de Bergerac, broadcast live to cinemas from the London’s West End. Fierce with a pen and notorious in combat, Cyrano almost has it all – if only he could win the heart of his true love Roxane. There’s just one big problem: he has a nose as huge as his heart. Will a society engulfed by narcissism get the better of Cyrano – or can his mastery of language set Roxane’s world alight? Edmond Rostand’s masterwork is adapted by Martin Crimp and directed by Jamie Lloyd (Betrayal). This classic play will be brought to life with linguistic ingenuity to celebrate Cyrano’s powerful and resonant resistance against overwhelming odds.

With songs from Grammy and Tony award winning pop icon Cyndi Lauper, book by legendary Broadway playwright Harvey Fierstein (La Cage Aux Folles), and direction and choreography by Jerry Mitchell (Legally Blonde, Hairspray), the musical is based on the film written by Geoff Deane and Tim Firth. Inspired by true events, this huge-hearted hit tells the story of two people with nothing in common – or so they think. Charlie (Killian Donnelly) is a factory owner struggling to save his family business, and Lola (Matt Henry) is a fabulous entertainer with a wildly exciting idea. With a little compassion and a lot of understanding, this unexpected pair learn to embrace their differences and create a line of sturdy stilettos unlike any the world has ever seen! But in the end, their most sensational achievement is their friendship. This unmissable musical theatre event celebrates a joyous story of British grit transforming into a high-heeled hit as it takes you from the factory floor of Northampton to the glamorous catwalks of Milan!

For the past 15 years every Tuesday evening, Danns bar has been the location for great session music. As the night progresses, different musicians arrive, and the music suddenly takes a left turn, down through the Ring of Kerry, before detouring back up through the Burren before a quick trip over to Nashville.
“We’re open to everyone and anything,” says Hughie Browne, the man with the whip, and the keeper of the flame for all these years. “It’s what makes it interesting not only for those listening but, perhaps more importantly, for us. We’re not here to play the same old songs week after week. We’re out to find something new each week…”
And with so many singers, pipers, banjo players, guitarists, turning up each week, it’s easy to see how a song might never remain the same.
