Audio Description
Audio Description for live performance is a live verbal commentary providing information on the visual elements of a production as it unfolds, from sets, props and costumes to actors’ facial expressions and movements across the stage.
Close Captioning
Captioning (OC) is similar to television subtitling and gives deaf and hard of hearing people access to live performances.
ISL Interpreted
Irish Sign Language (ISL) is the sign language used in the republic of Ireland. The language makes use of space and involves movement of hands, body, face and head. A sign language interpreter interprets what a person says or signs simultaneously, or immediately afterwards.
Loop System
Induction loops and infrared systems enable people with hearing aids to receive amplified sounds from within a specific area directly into their hearing device, without interference from background noise being amplified too.

Bernard Shaw’s dazzling wit makes You Never Can Tell a completely unpredictable and utterly hilarious battle of the sexes.

‘I have always said that the great advantage of a hotel is that it’s a refuge from home life’.

After 18 years abroad, Mrs. Clandon returns to England with her unruly teenage twins and forthright daughter. They set up residence in a seaside hotel. Their new life becomes increasingly complicated by her estranged husband and a love-struck dentist. Can a mysterious waiter help them all to live happily ever after?

This Christmas, the Abbey Theatre continues our celebration of one of Ireland’s greatest writers with this wonderful comedy directed by Conall Morrison and starring Niall Buggy.

Tickets: €13 – €45 / Conc. €13 – €23
