The Sell Out Success - Waiting for Ikea

Waiting for IKEA
Thu 1 & Fri 2 Sept @ 8pm - €16/€14 conc.  

 

Set in the heart of 'new' Dublin, where night wear is day wear and laughter is everywhere. Nothing much change's in Pimlico, each day begins and ends the same; it's what happens in between that keeps the neighbours interested. 

 

Waiting for IKEA premiered at the 2007 Dublin Fringe Festival and was the first show in the history of the Festival to sell out in advance of opening. This heart-warming story of friendship, family, community and sun bed obsessives, will appeal to friends of all ages with its unforgettable characters and colourful language.
