Gaiety Theatre
The Grand Old Lady of King Street
Just 3 minutes on foot from the Drury Court Hotel’s front door brings you to the Gaiety Theatre- making Drury Court the perfect base for a cultural break in the capital.
Opened in 1871, the Gaiety is one of Ireland’s oldest and most famous theatres: hosting a diverse range of plays, musicals, operas and pantomimes each year, performed both by home-grown talent and impeccable touring casts. Ireland’s own Walk of Fame, with handprints from familiar faces such as John B. Keane and Luciano Pavarotti
One of the highlights of the Gaiety’s calendar is always when Riverdance returns to its Irish residence- truly a spectacle to be enjoyed by old and young alike, in the opulent setting of the Gaiety, with its red velvet seats and chandeliers.
