Overview

The Powerhouse has established itself as one of the premier locations for just about anything stage-oriented. Music and theatre have become their specialty of late, and now they are combining the two for the World Theatre Festival, taking place this month.

Contemporary reimaginings and new, creative titles are on display — hoping to change perceptions of modern theatre and how it is considered by critics and audiences alike. With performances sure to encourage discussion and debate, make sure you are a part of the fun or miss out on some enlightening entertainment. The program includes Ireland's playful Pan Pan Theatre doing a contemporary spin on The Doll's House as well as the first play written in response to Norway's Utoya Island massacre, The Economist.

Keep an eye on our pages for more select recommendations, but we encourage you to check out the itinerary on The Powerhouse website and decide for yourself. Prices vary, but ticket packages are on offer.
