It Sounds Like Christmas: Interactive Show - for children 4-9 years of age, their parents and all who love Christmas.

Christmas is the amazing time of year for celebrations. It is full with lights, presents and surprises. What about another way of celebrating? In this hectic world, with shopping and advertising, we might believe that this is the only way to celebrate Christmas.

This is the story of a little boy called TimTom. TimTom is a little boy who is sightless and his biggest wish is to feel Christmas for the first time. With your help, we will turn his wish into reality by experiencing Christmas like never before: through sounds, movement and interaction!

Join a one of a kind experience, where we learn how we can come together and create magical moments for each other. We will do this by creating a magical choir, singing and creating a magical exploration of the real Christmas Spirit!

The Interactive Show lasts for 50 min and children 4-9 years of age and parents

OPERA - CARMEN

Fri6th Nov | Doors 7pm. Show 8pm | Tkts: €49.25, €47.25, €33.20

An Ellen Kent Production... Carmen.

One of the most famous and seductive operas of all time, the irresistibly emotional Carmen guarantees an evening of passion and romance.

The story is of the bewitching gypsy girl whose tantalising beauty lures a soldier to desertion and leads to her own murder - and the score includes one famous melody after another: the Habanera, the Seguidilla, the Flower Song, the Chanson Boheme and perhaps the best-known baritone aria of all, the Toreador's Song.

With international soloists, a highly praised chorus and full orchestra. A traditionally staged, dazzling new production set in Seville and reflecting a Goya painting - including a replica of Seville’s main square with fountains, flowers and orange trees.

Sung in French with English surtitles.

Jurassic Adventures

Thurs 1^st Oct | Doors 1.30pm. Show 2.30pm 

Tkts: €13 (Child), €16 (Adult) €48 (Family)

Dr. Grant, general manage and creator of the theme park, will not be able to attend its official opening, as he is caught in the middle of a cyclone. Therefore, he gives phone instructions to his daughter Alexandra and his assistant Paris Milton so they, with the help of an intern (Diego Carter), can manage the theme park and put it to work.

This causes comical situations with the interaction of the actors and the children in the audience - such as the presentation of the first Palaeolithic man created from fossilized DNA (Sapi) and how kids take the necessary instructions on how they should behave when they finally see the dinosaurs of the island. Accidents, technical failures, escapes, storms and many special effects will transport audiences to an adventure full of tenderness, with the birth of the first baby dinosaur of the park (Chub) and exciting situations that culminate with two dinosaurs (Dana and Raptor) in an epic fight.

Jurassic Adventures presents a ground-breaking set up which takes the audience to a Jurassic theme park. Using theatrical art technologies such as a 7.1 sound system, a climate system that simulates artificial olfactory environments, state of the art lighting, all in harmony with a stage-styled theme park scenery, the audience is not only transported to the park itself, but also participates in the adventure.

The cast unveil the most intriguing secrets of a theme park where everything is possible, from experiencing a cyclone, to interacting with two "real” dinosaurs equipped with a new hydraulic technology which makes realistic body movements and sounds, and which freely roam, throughout the auditorium.
