SUMMARY:Faba Trio: FREE EVENT as part of South Dublin Live
DESCRIPTION:FABA TRIO present their debut concert as part of South Dublin Live 2026 ‘Faba Trio: Live at the Civic Theatre’. \nThis concert invites an accessible introduction to audience members of all ages to contemporary chamber music. The trio consists of Gavin Ronan Kennedy (Piano)\, Dylan Quinn (Percussion) and Anthony Vala (Saxophone). \nThe centrepiece of the programme is the premiere of ‘Suite Haricot’ by Gavin Ronan Kennedy. The piece is an exploration of unique soundscapes created by the ensemble. Written with vivid soundscapes and close-up musical storytelling\, it’s a great introduction to new music. Also featuring ‘Trois Miniatures Hypnotisées’\, written by Dublin-based William Kenlon\, its three movements create a calm and meditative atmosphere and showcases the ensemble’s dynamic range through texture and colour.   The suite is followed by a collection of Chick Corea’s ‘Children’s Songs’ arranged for Piano and Soprano Saxophone by Rob Buckland. Corea stated that the pieces aim to “convey simplicity as beauty\, as represented in the spirit of a child”.  The final piece is a high energy rendition of Alexej Gerrassimez’s ‘Piazonore’. An interpolation of a much-loved nuevo tango classic by Astor Piazzolla\, ‘Libertango’\, ‘Piazonore’ is a climactic end to a vibrant and varied programme. \nPresented By: Faba Trio\nDuration: 60mins. No interval \nThis performance is funded by SDCC as part of the South Dublin Live 2026 programme\, an SDCC Arts Office initiative \n*Please note this show is in our studio space with unallocated seating.

SUMMARY:Barbara Scully - Because I'm Worth It
DESCRIPTION:Following on from the success of her one woman show – ‘Older Bolder Wiser’ – Barbara Scully has a new show for 2026 called ‘Because I’m Worth It’. \nBuilding on the themes of ‘Older Bolder Wiser’ and continuing to tell women to embrace getting older and to ignore the nonsense about ‘fighting ageing’\, Barbara will once again regale her audience with stories and comedy. \nAlthough the broad theme is ‘on brand’ Barbara says the focus is slightly different. \n“I would hesitate to call myself a diva\, but you know now that I am in my sixties there is stuff I no longer tolerate… because I am a woman who has stepped into my matriarchal power and I know my worth!! And it’s a lot. Just like all older women. Although we don’t often realise it. So\, I am here to tell all women that they are worth it too”. \nBarbara says that being older is delicious especially as you realise what makes you happy and you can indulge yourself a bit more than ever before. But it can make life unexpectedly complicated and Barbara will regale audiences about the times that this new found sense of her own worth and zero tolerance for stuff that irritates her has gone very wrong. “Ultimately I am an eejit but I make mistakes so that others don’t have to. Public service right there”. \nPresented By: Barbara Scully\nDuration: 90 mins. One interval.

SUMMARY:A Recurrence by D'Girlos Theatre Company - WORLD PREMIERE as part of Dublin Fringe Festival
DESCRIPTION:A Recurrence- World Premiere\nA Recurrence is  a gripping NEW three-hander following three working-class Dublin women: 1930s tenement\, 1990s flat\, and modern council house.

SUMMARY:Keep It Country: 100 years of the Grand Ole Opry- Presented by The Singalong Songbook
DESCRIPTION:The Singalong Songbook goes Country! \nIn November 2025\, The Grand Ole Opry celebrated 100 years. The Singalong Songbook sprinkle their trademark magic on the story and songs that helped shaped this iconic legacy. \nJust over 100 years ago\, an insignificant radio station in Nashville\, Tennessee began broadcasting a one-hour programme on Saturday nights. It was called WSN Barn Dance and it featured local musicians playing the traditional hill-billy music of the Appalacian Mountains\, much of it brought across the Atlantic by Irish emigrants fleeing the Famine. To the surprise and delight of the managers\, the programme took off … and how! Listeners tuned in from all across the USA. The name was changed to the “Grand Ole Opry”\, and over the years it developed into a multi-million-dollar business\, making Nashville the centre of the Country Music world. \nKeep it Country looks back on a century of country hits\, from the trailblazing twang of Hank Locklin and the rhinestone sparkle of Tammy Wynette\, to the home-spun wisdom of Jim Reeves and more. Come for the songs … and leave with the memories! \nDirected By Cathal McCabe. \nPresented By: The Singalong Songbook\nDuration: 155 mins. One interval \n

SUMMARY:'Lost and Found' -an evening of audio theatre in the dark
DESCRIPTION:‘Spectacular performance…. a thoroughly immersive experience’ – Meath Chronicle Sightless Cinema South Dublin returns to Civic with another lively mix of surround-sound audio shorts. They present ‘Split Time’\, written by the group with Hugh Hick\, where a blind runner’s fall fractures more than his ankle\, forcing him and his guide to confront some hard truths. You’ll also hear: ‘Overboard’\, a comedy about the adventures of a blind girl invited last-minute on a Mediterranean cruise\, and ‘Cuckoo’s Lane’\, a housing-crisis comedy about a daughter and boyfriend moving home; and live plays by the blind performers from the Sightless Cinema Network- a firm audience favourite. Optional blindfolds are provided to bring you into the immersive world of Sightless Cinema. \nPresented By: Sightless Cinema\nDuration: 100 mins. One interval\nAge Suitability 14+
