‘A must-see Christmas gem’ - The Irish Times
James Joyce's The Dead is one of the greatest short stories ever written. Thousands of people from Ireland and overseas have joined us at UCD Newman House for what critics described as a ‘sublime piece of immersive theatre’ ★★★★★ (The Stage), ‘a perfect adaptation’ ★★★★★ (The Arts Desk) and ‘joyous … infectiously festive’ ★★★★★ (Financial Times).
The Dead is produced by ANU Productions and Landmark Productions in association with the Museum of Literature Ireland.
