ONE MAN, TWO GUVNORSThe National Theatre of Great Britain returns to Dublin after the phenomenal success of War Horse, with the award-wining comedy ONE MAN TWO GUVNORS. With a cast including Gavin Spokes (One Man, Two Guvnors London) in the lead role as Francis, Norman Pace (Hale & Pace) as Charlie Clench, and Emma Barton (Eastenders) as Dolly, this internationally acclaimed smash-hit is a glorious celebration of British comedy - a unique, laugh-out-loud mix of satire, songs, slapstick and glittering one-liners.
Fired from his skiffle band, Francis Henshall becomes minder to Roscoe Crabbe. But Roscoe is really Rachel, posing as her own dead brother - who’s been killed by her boyfriend Stanley Stubbers. Francis spots the chance of an extra meal ticket and takes a job with one Stanley Stubbers - but to prevent discovery, he must keep his two guvnors apart. Simple. “Of all the feel good shows, this is the funniest.” The Sunday Times “One man two guvnors, one massive hit.” The Independent

MOSCOW CITY BALLET – GISELLE & THE NUTCRACKERCarefree village girl GISELLE goes mad and dies of a broken heart when her peasant lover Albrecht is unmasked as a nobleman who is betrothed to another. In Act 2 of the ballet when Albrecht visits her grave he finds the spirits of other maidens who died before their wedding day (the Wilis) dancing among the graves in the moonlight.
Any man who sees the Wilis dancing is doomed to dance until he dies from exhaustion, but Giselle’s spirit and everlasting love for Albrecht saves him from death.
MCB’s NUTCRACKER is an original interpretation of the eternal seasonal favourite.The choreography, interpretation, and beauty, together with outstanding virtuoso performances constantly win rapturous audience response and excellent reviews. Set to Tchaikovsky’s endearingly popular score from the live orchestra, this is an unmissable festive treat for all the family
