Dylan Moran

Tuesday 14th October / Saturday 18th October 2008
Palace Theatre, Oxford Road, Manchester.

Known for his absurdist observation and unique brand of dry humour, Moran is a master of comedy combining his talents as an actor, writer and performer to incredible effect. Dylan is also the creative force behind Channell 4’s Black Books in which he appears as a foul-tempered eccentric and drink-fuelled proprietor of a grubby book shop who would really rather not have customers if he could help it.

Riverdance

Monday 23rd to Saturday 28th March 2009
The Opera House, Manchester.


Now in its 13th year of touring, Riverdance returns to Manchester in March 2009. The internationally-acclaimed celebration of Irish music, song and dance returns back to the Manchester Opera House. Of all the performances to emerge from Ireland in the past two decades in music, theatre and film, nothing has carried the energy and the spectacle of Riverdance.

There is a 2.30pm matinee on the Thursday and Saturday.
Tickets are available from Friday 6th June 2008 at 10am.
