Theatre in Dublin this Week – 04-02-20

This week two very different productions open in Dublin. Medea is in the Gate Theatre and Priscilla Queen of the Desert in the Bord Gais Energy Theatre! Both should be worth seeing. There’s also two new productions in the Abbey with What I (Don’t) Know About Autism and Hansel and Gretel.

There’s also the Rough Magic Seeds Showcase which is well worth supporting. This year it is a production of Venus in Fur, full details can be found here.
