Join Clown Noir on a voyage of discovery, comedy, and heartbreak. In 60 mins of physical comedy, this clown adaptation of Shakespeare’s “Loves, Labour’s Lost” is a gloriously funny and tender portrayal of a young clown leaving the circus for the first time in order to study abroad and of course things don’t go to plan. Ages 15+.
Well-known Limerick performers Jean McGlynn, Jessica Bray, Liam O’Brien and Ian McGlynn are back with Cabaret des Frites after last year’s sell-out success. Along with a team of dancers and seasoned musicians, this Bank Holiday event is a must for Limerick audiences. And of course – there will be chips!
