Prepare for a rip-roaring adventure as BAGGAGE, written and performed by the brilliant Nicole Rourke, takes to the stage at My Place, Midleton. Brought to life by Noggin Theatre Company, this electrifying one-woman show fuses theatre, dance, and comedy to deliver a night of laughter, passion, and self-discovery.

What to Expect

BAGGAGE is not your typical coming-of-age tale—it’s a coming-of-rage! This dynamic performance follows the journey of a woman who leaves her small Irish town behind and sets off for the intoxicating dance floors of Buenos Aires. Through witty storytelling, expressive movement, and moments of pure hilarity, Rourke masterfully unpacks the emotional and cultural baggage we all carry.
