Theatre in Dublin this Week – 19-12-17

Well, what do you expect? It’s Christmas after all. The main show in town is definitely Santa! Otherwise, it’s pretty much the same as last week, but see what you can find below. I’ve tried to give you a taste of next year, with some of the January Highlights at the bottom of the page.

There are a couple of new productions this week, with I’m Too Fat For This Show by Kate Huffman running from until tomorrow (20th December) and Dead Cat Bounce… Do Stop Believing at the Project (18 Dec – 22 Dec).
