From Grammy Award-winning shows to fan favourite musicals, the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre has unveiled its exciting 2027 performance line-up.
It might be time for a trip to the theatre, as the Dublin-based arts venue has announced seven new shows, including internationally-acclaimed musicals.
The curtain soon to rise on Mrs Doubtfire, which runs until 03 January 2027, adapted from the 1993 live-action comedy film starring Robin Williams.

The feel-good family entertainment will continue after the show's finale, as Back To The Future The Musical has been announced as the 2027 Christmas show.
The Irish premiere of the musical comedy will run from 17 November – 31 December 2027. The show is set to bring a 'spectacular dose of nostalgia, comedy and adventure to Dublin,' according to the theatre.

A string of award-winning shows will land in Ireland next year, including Operation Mincemeat, described as 'the spy comedy of the century.' It will land in the theatre from 17–21 August.
Hadestown, the acclaimed Tony and Grammy Award-winning Best Musical, will take audiences on a journey to the underworld and back, weaving together two powerful mythic love stories in a deeply moving and defiantly hopeful theatrical experience.

The feel-good energy continues with Hairspray (10–14 August), telling uplifting story of Tracy Turnblad as she takes on prejudice and fights for equality, while the award-winning Sister Act (26 October – 06 November) brings its much-loved story of a disco diva finding an unexpected home in a convent, complete with show-stopping music.
Guys And Dolls sees Bord Gáis Energy Theatre return to producing with a brand-new in-house staging of the musical theatre classic, bringing the colourful gamblers, gangsters and showgirls of 1950s Manhattan to life with unforgettable songs by Frank Loesser.
And if it's an evening at the ballet you are after, The Nutcracker promises a magical experience, with 60 world-class dancers from State Ballet of Georgia performing Tchaikovsky’s iconic score, accompanied live by the RTÉ Concert Orchestra.
Tickets for all seven newly announced productions go on sale on Friday 13 November 2026 at 09.00am through Ticketmaster.
