In just under a month Best Man starts it’s run in Smock Alley Theatre I’m really proud of it. if you saw it and liked at SceneAndHeard tell your friends. If you haven’t seen it I promise it’s very good.

A great privilege to be part of this brilliant programme. Thanks so much to pamela mcqueen , Thomas Conway, Smock Alley Theatre SceneAndHeard Clíona Dukes caoimhe connolly Arts Council Ireland ❤🙏🏻

Client Callum Maxwell's play OH BROTHER developed as part of SceneAndHeard kicks off tonight as part of this year's Dublin Fringe Festival. Catch it until the 18th in Smock Alley Theatre ! Starring Callum Maxwell and Ruairi Lenaghan.

This is shite. SceneAndHeard ran a brilliant festival for tuppence. A great place to start a new show. How much would it have cost to keep it going? You can't have an arts scene without a 'starts scene'.

SO SO SO EXCITED FOR THIS!
796/3400 was created in 2017 after bringing it to SceneAndHeard.
We’re reviving it in The Glens Centre 28-29 Oct! Can’t wait to see you all there! 💜

took on the Sisyphean task of filling it. Countless pieces of theatre I’ve loved have started here. Not funding this festival betrays a lack of understanding of the ecosystem of the theatre industry in Ireland.

This is a huge loss. There is so much talent amidst the younger and ever-emerging generations of theatre-makers. And no where near enough spaces or resources to house and support them. Cliona, Caoimhe and the rest of the SceneAndHeard Smock Alley Theatre team recognised that gap and
