Sundays in July & August, we're spending our afternoons with Oscar Wilde.

Work is the Curse of the Drinking Classes takes you to Paris, 1898, one year after Wilde's release from prison. Drawing on his letters, essays and anecdotes, this wonderfully witty and deeply human 60-minute one man show captures all the charm, the humour and the heartbreak of one of literature's greatest figures.

"Charming and witty" – The Irish Times
"Funny and melancholic" – The Times

Sundays 5, 12, 19, 26 July & 2, 9, 16, 30 August | 12pm and 2pm
