Competition Time... Nettle Horse by Little John Nee Wednesday 10th - Saturday 13th January 2024 @8pm We have 3 pairs of complimentary tickets for the show available to the first customers who e-mail info@corkartstheatre.com with the word 'Nettle' in the subject line.  In the very near future Mink Devine is selling edible beetles in a field full of horses; timber homes are being erected at alarming speed and a Boston heiress has just got planning permission to build a pyramid in the West of Ireland. Nettle Horse by Little John Nee is a transformative theatrical odyssey weaving storytelling, song, and satire that invites the audience to step into a parallel universe and witness the magic of their own imaginations in creating the future. Little John Nee is an award-winning writer, performer and musician based in the west of Ireland. He has developed a unique style of musical storytelling theatre, simultaneously hilarious and heart-breaking, that has won him international recognition. A prolific creator of work for theatre, he was elected to Aosdána in recognition of his contribution to Irish culture. “A masterpiece of story telling [about Rural Electric]” – The Guardian “A mesmerising piece of theatre balanced somewhere between the stories of Gabriel Garcia Marquez and a zen meditation session. The evening made me feel as if I was a child again, enthralled by a magical story [about Sparkplug]” – Michael Harding, The Irish Times Tickets: €20, €18 concessions Book Tickets Back by Popular Demand... Jump!? Written and performed by Pauline O’Driscoll Directed by Karen Minihan Tuesday 30th January – Saturday 3rd February 2024 @ 8.00pm Monica is on the edge, literally! She’s had enough, of being nice and reasonable and sensible, not to mention her temperamental fffing washing machine. She wants to scream and shout. She wants more… including but not limited to the perfect cocktail … of hormones! A bold, truthful and delightfully comic leapfrog through all the taboo minefields of female hormones and sexuality from menstruation to menopause and everything in between. Book Tickets Hiya Fella Productions proudly ​presents Sexy Laundry by Michele Riml starring Ciarán Bermingham & Fionula Linehan Tuesday 6th – Saturday 17th February 2024 @ 8pm After twenty-five years of marriage, the emergence of love handles, body parts that sag and receding hairlines, Alice and Henry have hit an intimate waste land. Bed is for sleeping, watching Netflix and flicking through Facebook. The only sounds coming from behind the closed bedroom door is snoring and the odd gasp for air. With a “Sex for Dummies” guidebook in hand Alice convinces Henry into a weekend of alone time in a posh hotel, with the the hopes of seducing him, unearthing her inner vixen and relighting the fire they had. Henry, however, wants to keep things the way they are ‘we’re grand’ – comfortable and easy. Book Tickets Cork Arts Theatre - "The Little Theatre with a Big Heart!"
