The Irish Times described the Abbey’s Tartuffe as ‘an effervescent production in which great actors have a brilliant time’.
Under Caitríona McLaughlin’s direction, Frank McGuinness’s retelling of Molière’s classic comic farce is wrapped in an ultra-contemporary production. The lavish design and costumes have a twenty-first century edge, while the electro-pop soundtrack is a statement in itself.
After a rollicking run at the Abbey, Tartuffe is now on nationwide tour:
April 12th - 15th at The Lime Tree Theatre, Limerick
April 18th - 22nd at the Black Box, Galway
April 25th - 29th at the Lyric Theatre, Belfast
May 3rd - 6th at An Grianán Theatre, Donegal
May 9th - 13th at Cork Opera House, Cork
This competition is now closed.
