Theatre Upstairs @ the Plough

Theatre Upstairs @ the Plough is a non-funded, profit-share venue set up by Karl Shiels and Paul Walker with the co-operation of Lanigan's Plough Bar (opposite the Abbey Theatre, Middle Abbey Street, D1).

It launches its programme of events for Lunch Time and Tea Time theatre on January 18 2010.

The Lunch Time programme will features original works from new and established writers, offering a series of world premiere plays from writers such as Paul Walker (Stardust, Ladies & Gents), Eugene O'Brien (Eden, Pure Mule), Deirdre Kinahan (Hue & Cry), Bryan Delaney (The Cobbler) and Jimmy Murphy (Kings of The Kilburn Highroad).

The Tea Time slot presents a select series of revivals, including one from Mark O'Rowe (Howie The Rookie, Terminus, Intermission), along with play readings and works in progress.

The company is always on the look-out for submissions, so send them to:

Theatre Upstairs
Lanigans Plough Bar
Mid Abbey Street
Dublin 1.

It's also hosting a fundraising night, entitled D'Relish, on Saturday, January 9, 2010, at 8pm. Admission is €5.

It will be an evening of comedy, vocals, guitar, performances, and the infamous D'Relish Raffle.
