Belfast International Arts Festival returns from 14 October – 9 November, with world-class theatre, music, visual arts, film and literature, at over 30 venues across the city.
To celebrate the festival’s 63rd edition, we’ve got a great competition for you!
THE PRIZE
Win an overnight stay for two with breakfast in Room2, Belfast on Saturday 25 October. Room2 Belfast combines the comfort and flexibility of home whilst offering the best bits of a hotel.
This fabulous prize also includes two tickets to see Denouement at the Lyric Theatre. Written by John Morton, and directed by Jimmy Fay, this bold new play will linger with you long after the curtain falls.
ABOUT DENOUEMENT
It’s 2048. Armageddon is coming. In a remote Irish farmhouse, Edel (Anna Healy) and Liam (Patrick O’Kane) are living out their final hours, cut off from friends and family with only their memories for company.
Amid the looming apocalypse, they bicker. With limited time left, Liam and Edel busy themselves arguing over things that matter and things that don’t.
Denouement is a moving and darkly comic take on what remains when everything is stripped away.
Intensely provocative and wonderfully witty, Denouement is both a glimpse into a dystopian future and a heartfelt portrait of an enduring relationship. Are some things better left unsaid, even at the end?
