WELCOME...
Hot off the Press we are delighted to announce the first show for UK City of
Culture 2013 STARLIGHT EXPRESS. Coming to our venue in January 2013,
this futuristic tale about love and hope in the face of adversity promises two
hours of speed, spectacle, energy and turbo charged excitement to the
backdrop of some of Andrew Lloyd Webbers most memorable musical hits.
Theres lots of music to open the season with, firstly, the return of IRELANDS
SHOWBANDS; the Ulster Orchestra who carries on its tradition of the NEW
YEAR VIENNESE CONCERT and we look forward to another Opera from NI
Opera with HANSEL & GRETEL.
Comedy this season comes from CONAL GALLEN in January; while, also in the
same month, FATHER TED & CO. promises a unique and interactive comedy
dining experience, which brings the audience face to face with this trio of
famous priests and manically devoted housekeeper! WILLIAM CAULFIELD
promises another evening of laughs in February, while DARA OBRIAIN joins
us in March.
Straight from the West End, GREASE is here in February featuring X Factor
singing sensation, Mary Byrne. Willy Russells BLOOD BROTHERS returns in
April with its superb score including Marilyn Monroe and the emotionally
charged hit Tell Me Its Not True.
The hilarious GIRLS NIGHT THE MUSICAL is back in February while Irene
Melaughs THE DUMPED DIVORCEEs SUPPORT GROUP returns in March.
For children this season we have two wonderful shows: the magical A SPELL
OF COLD WEATHER, directed by Paul Bosco McEneaney and the globally
known SESAME STREET LIVE: ELMO MAKES MUSIC! a much anticipated first
for our venue.
Remember to look out for our new offers in our award winning restaurant,
Encore Brasserie there are some great packages available this season to
ensure you enjoy a night out at our venue at a competitive price.
David McLaughlin
Chief Executive
....................................................................................................................................................................................................
We have a wide range of shows to take us into Spring and were excitedly
looking forward to our brand new season!

Frank McGuinness CARTHAGINIANS has often been acknowledged as one of the few enduring plays to have
emerged from The Troubles. An elegy for Bloody Sunday in Derry, it is the survival of tragedy, of intense
grief which becomes the unspoken subject through the personal journeys of three women and three men
who camp out in a graveyard awaiting the rise of the dead. Dido is the outsider who brings daily pram loads
of supplies including a script of his own attempt at a Troubles Play, The Burning Balaclava;
the comic centrepiece which is surrounded by jokes, quizzes and encounters
which pass the time of waiting. Individual resurrections signal a community,
like Carthage, rising from its ashes.

Bill Kenwright presents Willy Russells legendary BLOOD BROTHERS, the captivating and moving tale of twins who,
separated at birth, grow up on opposite sides of the tracks, only to meet again with fateful consequences. The superb
score includes Bright New Day, Marilyn Monroe and the emotionally charged hit Tell Me It's Not True with Maureen
Nolan, of the world-renowned pop group 'THE NOLAN SISTERS' reprising her role as the tragic Mrs. Johnstone.
Few musicals have received quite such acclaim as the multi-award winning BLOOD BROTHERS, and Bill Kenwrights
production, having recently celebrated its 23rd phenomenal year in London, continues to enjoy standing ovations at
every devastating performance.
