Eveline & Clay is an enchanting musical theatre performance at the James Joyce Centre in Dublin 1. This captivating presentation brings to life two poignant stories from James Joyce's Dubliners, masterfully adapted by Michael Holohan and Paul O'Hanrahan. Set in a newly modern Dublin, the performance follows the journeys of two women seeking elusive freedom amidst their restricted lives. 

Originally premiered in 2009, Eveline & Clay is a revival of the successful collaboration between the renowned composer Michael Holohan and the award-winning Joyce interpreter and actor Paul O'Hanrahan. These two stories, 'Eveline' and 'Clay', were instrumental in Joyce's development as a writer. 'Eveline' was published in the Irish Homestead in September 1904, shortly before Joyce left Ireland with Nora Barnacle. 'Clay' was completed by December 1905 and later included in the collection Dubliners in 1914. Both stories shed light on the patriarchal control that governed women's lives in Dublin, delving into themes of family, work, and religion.

Music plays a vital role in these narratives, serving as a conduit for memory and socialization. As a Dublin native, Michael Holohan has composed new piano music for this performance, drawing inspiration from the city's north side where the stories unfold. Supported by the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport, and Media, the James Joyce Centre is the perfect setting to experience this immersive production.

Directed by Balloonatics Theatre Company's Paul O'Hanrahan, an acclaimed actor and Joyce specialist, Eveline & Clay promises to transport audiences into the captivating world of James Joyce's Dubliners. O'Hanrahan's theatrical adaptations of Ulysses and Finnegans Wake have garnered Fringe First awards at the Edinburgh Festival, while his Bloomsday performances of Ulysses in Dublin have become a beloved tradition. Accomplished composer and pianist Michael Holohan, who has resided in Drogheda since 1983, brings his extensive musical expertise to this mesmerizing production. With numerous accolades and international recognition, Holohan's compositions have been celebrated both domestically and abroad.

Don't miss the opportunity to witness Eveline & Clay, a remarkable fusion of literature, theatre, and music. Join us at the James Joyce Centre on January 11, 2024, for an unforgettable evening. Tickets are priced at €13.85.

Dublin&#39;s most worth visiting attractions, there are three worth seeing: First, the Kyle Sutra, it is a national treasure of Ireland, but must listen to the voice explanation, otherwise you can&#39;t understand the preciousness of this book; The second is the library corridor, which is the location of the Harry Potter movie, and it is also very simple and distinctive; the third is the oldest harp in Ireland. In general, the tour is very exciting. The small disadvantage is that the price of Trip.com is slightly more expensive than the local fare, and the price is not very high.

Dublin Castle has some long royal history, and the attractions are very good and worth a visit. On-site tickets only sell 8 euros (60 years old and 6 euros). Trip.com over 60 years old tickets cost 160 yuan, which is 3 times the scene. Too expensive! ! ! Affected my high trust and goodwill for Trip.com ! ! !

St Patrick's Cathedral

我们一直在爱的旅程

St. Patrick&#39;s Cathedral is Ireland&#39;s largest Catholic church. St. Patrick&#39;s Cathedral is exquisite and grand, more than 300 years ago, the author of Gulliver&#39;s Travels, Jonathan Westft, was bishop of the church and his remains were buried under it. The church has a Chinese guide to get a detailed understanding of the church&#39;s details, its construction and restoration history, as well as the characters and stories associated with it. After visiting St Patrick&#39;s Cathedral, you can spend a short time in St Patrick&#39;s Park at the back of the church. This park is very small, with a small market, stalls selling art, handicrafts and cosmetics. It is recommended to book tickets in advance.

Phoenix Park

Be warned, to walk all the way through takes about an hour and there are no busses that stop in the park- they only drive through and stop either side, but the park itself is beautiful and easy to spend that much time wandering in, the deer are usually in the upper end of the park after the cricket field, there are a few food carts dotted around and also Dublin zoo located in the park
