Whereabouts

Fishamble in co-production with Temple Bar Cultural Trust

Ever wondered… what are they talking about at the next table… what sort of person tried on this shirt before me… is that woman his wife or his daughter?

Fishamble has taken to the streets of Temple Bar. Indoor and outdoor locations such as a nightclub, an alleyway, a boutique and many more spring to life in a series of dramatic brief encounters. Choose the daytime or evening trail – or both – and immerse yourself in strange and wonderful stories that are played out in the heart of the city.

Whereabouts is a selection of short plays to entertain, provoke and surprise. Come and explore the streets of Temple Bar as you have never seen them before!
All the plays in this season were selected from the hundreds sent in by writers to Fishamble following its Do You Have Something to Tell Me? call for submissions. The event was free but ticketed and each trail lasted approximately one hour.

Reviews

‘…quite riveting assembly of short site-specific plays…(performances) weave themselves into the fabric of the city – reality and fiction blur…Temple Bar becomes vivid and compelling… wonderfully bizarre, expertly directed…when it stops, you see the city in a different way: a place teeming with narratives if you just take the time to look.’ 
The Irish Times

‘Jim Culleton and Fishamble Theatre Company are to be praised for putting the promenading back into promenade theatre with Whereabouts…the audience (is) literally on its toes…the acting throughout is of a high standard… riveting… brilliant… this makes all of Temple Bar a stage and all the pedestrians players on it – one is left assessing everyone, never quite sure who is real’ 
Irish Independent
​

‘There were moments that were extraordinary…there were also moments of well-handled social-realism…exciting for the way they blurred the division between what was theatre and what could have been just somebody on the street… well realized… what was special was the way it all worked together, the way it surprised and subverted.
