Gold in the Water

One Thousand Pieces and Lovano

14 - 23 November

Book Now

Bart’s fabulous life shatters when a mysterious goldfish lands on his doorstep and crashes his wedding anniversary celebrations. His husband Harvey wants to take it in, but Bart says no. Love is on the line, life-long friendships are put to the test and Bart faces a slippery predicament – risk making a change or end up all alone. Gold In The Water is the fabulous, hilarious and heartfelt new Irish musical from Shane O’Reilly with Paul Curley, composed by Denis Clohessy, directed by Ronan Phelan and choreographed by Philip Connaughton.

 

This flamboyant theatrical extravaganza, with original music performed with full live band, stars Matthew Malone as Bart, Domhnall Herdman as his husband Harvey, Clare Barrett as the ferocious Pet Shelter Owner and Ruth Berkeley, Tiernan Messitt-Greene, Niamh McAllister, and Rachel O’Byrne as their gang of friends and family. Gold in the Water is a cracking comic musical that looks at how we deal with the unexpected and our ability to handle something new. It’s a quirky, funny and life-affirming extravaganza for all!
