Dublin by Lamplight May 4, 2007

The Corn Exchange presents
Dublin by Lamplight
Directed by Annie Ryan
Written by Michael West

Amidst the filth and fury of Dublin 1904, a city on the brink of anarchy and with artistic aspirations rubbing shoulders with shady politics, the theatrical event of the century is about to explode ... Will the Irish National Theatre of Ireland seize its chance for glory? Fading stars, rebels, whores and romantics irreverently expose the strange and lurid world of Dublin by Lamplight.

Awesome perfection ... funny, clever, strange and thoughtful ... superbly gifted cast. - The Irish Times
