Thom McGinty was a much beloved Grafton Street character\, intrinsic to the culture of the city and fondly remember by all those who encountered his mime antics during the ‘80s and ‘90s. He brought the street to a halt as onlookers crowded around for a gawk as he stood there impervious to their attention or undertook his ‘Zen walk’. And\, then\, with a wink or a flinch he tumbled their tension into mirth and awe. \nThe late Gay Byrne conducted a sympathetic interview\, with McGinty on The Late Late Show in 1988\, in which he dispelled many of the myths and ignorance which existed at the time about the AIDS virus of which he suffered. He died age 42. This is the most fitting of tributes to one of the city’s most cherished.

With the 40\,000 grant\, he’s created The Spider’s House\, a gothic tale set in a warped city space that reflects our own. \nBilled as a nightmare from a disordered mind\, the play follows a romance between Paulsa and Issy\, who are trying to escape the city limits. With this his new work\, Ford asks what relationships are permissible and who should be denied love. The play runs from the 27th of February to March 7th\, at 2:45pm and 7:45pm each day. \n  \n  URL:https://www.totallydublin.ie/event/theatre-highlight-the-spiders-house/ LOCATION:Project Arts Centre\, 39 East Essex Street\, Temple Bar\, Dublin 2\, Ireland CATEGORIES:Theatre Listings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.totallydublin.ie/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/unnamed.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200306T203000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200307T223000 DTSTAMP:20260920T041020 CREATED:20200304T110504Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200306T134150Z UID:70217-1583526600-1583620200@www.totallydublin.ie SUMMARY:Dance Highlight: The River DESCRIPTION:From football pitches to contemporary dance\, 17 women primarily from Ballybough and Sheriff Street will take to the stage in Project Arts Centre. \nFor the last 6 months the women have been trained in a unique and evolving dance practice by choreographer Maria Nilsson Waller and singer/composer Stace Gill/The Sei under their Flora Fauna Project: a multidisciplinary production house rooted in dance and music. \n \nThe women came from two GAA teams brought together by Dublin GAA player Michale Darragh MacAuley who is a supporter of the project in the NEIC.  “Football brought us together\, dancing is keeping us together” says Tracey/Ballybough GAA for Ma’s. \n \n“As a choreographer I am always looking for rawness and bravery in the performers\, and I decided to work with non-professional dancers. These women really bring it! I dream\, prepare and encourage and am careful not to put the filters of my own dance education on to what these dancers create.” Nilsson Waller says about the piece. \n \n“The River” will be the women’s first time on a professional stage and their comfort zones are being challenged to the max.  The last 6 months have been transformative for everyone involved. Sharing what they have learned will be a new level and a rare experience both for performers and audience. \n“Me kids asked me\, ‘Ma\, where ye goin?’ I’m goin’ to be meself for an hour”. – Jackie/Ballybough \nThe music is composed and performed live on stage by THE SEI / Stace Gill. \nStace Gill\, who herself started her dance training only a few years ago says: \n“Finding the flow between body and imagination is a game changer in life. These powerful women on stage completely embody this for the audience to see and feel.’ \n \nTHE RIVER is feminine\, loaded with echoes of traditional Dublin\, the second piece PIDGIN’ represents masculine spirit and multicultural Ireland. \nPidgin\, performed by internationally successful Irish/Nigerian dance artist Mufutau Yusuf\, refers to the simplified or bastardised language which came into existence as a result of contact between two or more languages\, occurring for example in situations like trade\, migration and colonisation. The piece is also a personal take on his own upbringing\, living his early childhood in Nigeria and then growing up in Ireland . \nThe River + Pidgin \nFriday 6th 7.30pm \nSaturday 2.30pm + 7.30 pm \nTICKETS projectartscentre.ie \nflorafaunaproject.com URL:https://www.totallydublin.ie/event/the-river/ LOCATION:Project Arts Centre\, 39 East Essex Street\, Temple Bar\, Dublin 2\, Ireland CATEGORIES:Dance Listings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.totallydublin.ie/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/PRESS-PHOTO-2-DAWN-copy.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200305T203000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200305T230000 DTSTAMP:20260920T041020 CREATED:20200303T143900Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200304T100519Z UID:70174-1583440200-1583449200@www.totallydublin.ie SUMMARY:Theatre Highlight: Our New Girl DESCRIPTION:Playwright Nancy Harris is no stranger to the stage of The Gate having adapted The Red Shoes in 2017 and making her Druid debut with The Beacon last October. First performed in London in 2012\, Our New Girl is knee-deep in dysfunctional family territory. \nAnnie\, an Irish nanny\, turns up unexpectedly in the affluent London home of Hazel who is coping with her pregnancy\, troubled son and Richard\, her plastic surgeon husband\, who is away on charitable work. Everything is simmering\, she’s the ingredient which brings it to the boil when Richard returns. It’s bears all the hallmarks of an excruciatingly taut psychological drama\, one both feared and beloved by the middle-classes.

The Mancunian rapper and singer brings a jazz-infused swagger to bear on her urban beats. She dropped a new\, three-track EP\, Kare Package just before Christmas and enlisted Toddla T to produce her new single Famous. It’s no surprise that she calls to mind Jill Scott’s soulful vibes and supported Lauryn Hill on her comeback tours. “Ain’t no pressure with the world – they want diamonds\, I want pearls\,” she sings on Sit Back. And who are we to argue. \n  \nAcademy Green Room\, Friday February 28\, €20 (+14s show) URL:https://www.totallydublin.ie/event/gig-highlight-i-am-diana-de-brito/ LOCATION:The Academy Green Room\, 57 Middle Abbey Street\, Dublin 1\, Ireland CATEGORIES:Gig Listings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.totallydublin.ie/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/2019-IAMDDB-Echo-Location-Talent-Andere.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200227T220000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200227T230000 DTSTAMP:20260920T041020 CREATED:20200220T164015Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200220T164049Z UID:69917-1582840800-1582844400@www.totallydublin.ie SUMMARY:Comedy Highlight: Histrionix DESCRIPTION:In this new show as part of Scene+Heard\, history blends with fiction in increasingly absurd ways. At the beginning of the show\, a historian comes on stage to tell a lesser-known true story from history. But once a team of improvisers take to the stage to re-enact this story that they’ve never heard before\, the truth soon becomes an afterthought. Mistakes are made\, amplified and built off one another until this re-telling spirals out of control. Histrionix\, which boasts some of Ireland’s most experienced improvisers\, promises to leave the audience both more and less informed. \n  \n  URL:https://www.totallydublin.ie/event/theatre-highlight-histrionix/ LOCATION:Smock Alley Theatre\, Exchange Street Lower\, Temple Bar\, Dublin 8\, Ireland CATEGORIES:Comedy Listings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.totallydublin.ie/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Histrionix4_00042.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200226T200000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200226T223000 DTSTAMP:20260920T041020 CREATED:20200128T121858Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200128T121858Z UID:69251-1582747200-1582756200@www.totallydublin.ie SUMMARY:Caligari 100 DESCRIPTION:Robert Wiene’s Das Cabinet des Dr Caligari shook filmgoers worldwide when it premiered in Berlin on February 26th\, 1920. It changed the direction of the art form like no other film has since. Now presented in a definitive restoration\, the film’s chilling\, radically expressionist vision is set to grip viewers again. At a local carnival in a small German town\, hypnotist Dr. Caligari presents the somnambulist Cesare\, who can purportedly predict the future of curious fairgoers. But at night\, the doctor wakes Cesare from his sleep to enact his evil bidding… \nIncalculably influential\, the film’s nightmarishly jagged sets\, sinister atmospheric and psychological emphasis left an immediate impact in its wake (horror\, film noir\, and gothic cinema would all be shaped directly by it). \nThis special centenary screening with feature a new score performed live by Adrian Crowley\, Sean Mac Erlaine\, Matthew Nolan and Barry Adamson (Magazine / Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds) with live processing by Neil O’Connor. \n \n  \n  URL:https://www.totallydublin.ie/event/caligari-100/ LOCATION:St Ann’s Church\, Dawson Street\, Dublin 2 CATEGORIES:Concert Listings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.totallydublin.ie/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/The_Cabinet_of_Dr._Caligari_poster.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200225T210000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200226T000000 DTSTAMP:20260920T041020 CREATED:20200224T161907Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200224T161907Z UID:70017-1582664400-1582675200@www.totallydublin.ie SUMMARY:Film Highlight: Brazil DESCRIPTION:This Tuesday\, the IFI are offering a rare opportunity to see Terry Gilliam’s masterpiece on the big screen. Brazil follows Sam (Jonathan Pryce) a beleagued desk clerk who dreams of escaping his humdrum life. When faulty paperwork leads to the death of the wrong person\, he’s drawn into a conspiracy involving terrorism\, plastic surgery and a renegade air conditioning specialist played by Robert De Niro. \nReleased in 1985\, the film combines dystopian buracracy with Gilliam’s mischevious humour and immaculate design. Tuesday’s screening will be introduced by broadcaster Rick O’Shea.

That night she sang Billie Holiday’s Deep Song. \nMy attachment to the music of this era was an intriguing element and definitely a good starting point. I’ve been listening to Billie Holiday\, Chet Baker\, Sarah Vaughan et al since I was a teenager. I am often struck with the sense of not necessarily belonging to my own time – that the mid 20th century might be a better fit for me. With Gina’s singing in mind\, I imagined that the show might be a sort of song cycle. \n \nThe name came to me over pints in O’Brien’s on Leeson Street. ‘Old man’ pubs seem to be blanketed with stories and memories: celebrations; fights; sorrowful times; secret love affairs; not unlike the layer upon layer of paint\, and pre-smoking-ban smoke embedded in the walls. “If these walls could talk” led on to Walls Talk.  As we live our lives we leave traces of ourselves behind – our actions\, feelings and thoughts clinging to the stuff we touch. \nThe original music arrangements were created by Paddy Mulcahy (Limerick)\, Fiachra Ó Corragáin (Kinsale)\, Joe Csibi (Dublin) & Zac Gvi (London). Songs include Seems Like Old Times\, I’m Fool to Want You\, Gloomy Sunday\, Deep Song\, For All We Know and I’ll Be Seeing You\, to name but a few. \nWalls Talk premieres on the week of the 25-29th February\, 7.30 pm in Project Arts Centre\, Dublin – find out more here. \nTickets €18 / 20 URL:https://www.totallydublin.ie/event/walls-talk/ LOCATION:Project Arts Centre\, 39 East Essex Street\, Temple Bar\, Dublin 2\, Ireland CATEGORIES:Performance ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.totallydublin.ie/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Walks-Talk-8-copy.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200222T203000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200222T223000 DTSTAMP:20260920T041020 CREATED:20200220T152838Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200224T130606Z UID:69898-1582403400-1582410600@www.totallydublin.ie SUMMARY:Mamafesta Memorialising DESCRIPTION:My mum has senile dementia. I made my last piece about her. But it wasn’t enough. I still have more to do and more to say. I’m worried that what’s happening to her will happen to me. So\, this piece is a memory exercise for three male dancers. All pushing to see how much abstract information our bodies can retain. The title comes from a line from the Irish writer James Joyce’s epic novel Finnegan’s Wake. It references a letter (or manifesto) written by Annalivia Plurabelle. Annalivia represents the archetypal female character in this extremely complex masterpiece and\, though she may not be a classic heroine\, she is very definitely all essence. It is this essence or shifting between past present and future that reminds me of the fragility of our own identity. If we are more than the sum of our parts\, what’s left as some of those parts disappear? Who are we when it’s all gone? In this work it’s my own demons I’m dealing with. My need to tell my stories. To not forget or be forgotten. – Philip Connaughton \nRuns from Wednesday March 19 to Saturday March 22 URL:https://www.totallydublin.ie/event/mamafesta-memorialising/ LOCATION:Project Arts Centre\, 39 East Essex Street\, Temple Bar\, Dublin 2\, Ireland CATEGORIES:Theatre Listings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.totallydublin.ie/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/mamafesta_memorialising_companyphilipconnaughton.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200220T213000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200221T000000 DTSTAMP:20260920T041020 CREATED:20200219T144639Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200219T144639Z UID:69882-1582234200-1582243200@www.totallydublin.ie SUMMARY:Gig Highlight: Andreas Varady Trio DESCRIPTION:DublinJazz.ie kicks off their International Jazz Series with a show by the Andreas Varady Trio in Lost Lane on February 20th.

At the age of 13\, he became the youngest headlining artist at Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club in London\, and since then has played with Martin Taylor\, Tommy Emmanuel and Louis Stewart among others. \nThis week\, The Andreas Varady Trio come to Lost Lane with two albums under their belt and some of the finest jazz to come out of the country in the decade.

In the years since\, they’ve done everything from an acoustic album to more maximalist efforts that take inspiration from Indian and Turkish music. \nNow back with their new album ‘Everything Else Has Gone Wrong’ after a three year hiatus\, Bombay Bicycle Club seem intent on taking back their crown. Lead single ‘Eat\, Sleep\, Wake (Nothing but You)’ is the kind of exceedingly earnest toe tapper that the band made their name with over a decade ago and now due to popular demand\, a second Vicar Street date has been added to their Irish Tour.

Euripides Greek tragedy was first produced in 431BC so director Oonagh Murphy has a fair few reference points at her disposal. However\, this staging takes its lead from Kate Mulvany and Anne-Louise Sarks’ radical refresh of the source material in which they frame the tragedy from the perspective of the heroine’s children. Melding contemporary concerns upon mythological moorings whilst paying deference to the ‘out of the mouth of babes’ insights adds up to the prospect of a thrilling piece of theatre. \nUntil Saturday\, February 22 \nPhoto Credit: Simon Burch URL:https://www.totallydublin.ie/event/medea/ LOCATION:Gate Theatre\, Cavendish Row\, Parnell Square\, Dublin 1\, Ireland CATEGORIES:Theatre Listings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.totallydublin.ie/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/MedeaHeader2.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200202T090000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200207T180000 DTSTAMP:20260920T041020 CREATED:20200131T133442Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200131T133511Z UID:69349-1580634000-1581098400@www.totallydublin.ie SUMMARY:Exhibition Highlight: Yeye Weller - New Year Same Me DESCRIPTION:With an arsenal of cartoon-like doodles\, German illustrator YeYe Weller brings a vibrant palate to a distinctive playful style in his character creations. The show features 12 new works including ‘Diet Starts Tomorrow’\, ‘New Year but Same Troubles’ and our favourite\, ‘Having New Year’s Resolutions is so Last Year’. Sentiments which should chime with our well-meaning slacker sensibilities. “I love soccer\, rain and sarcasm\,” says Yeye.

The record will be her first solo effort since 2006’s Milkwhite Sheets\, and first album of any kind since her most recent Mark Lanegan collaboration\, Hawk\, in 2010. It wasn’t meant to be this way with the album recorded five years ago but held in a rights/legal limbo after the closure of her former label. “It felt like I’d retired\,” she says. “Or I was in prison. To be told I could not release the record completely broke me and I started questioning everything\, feeling very reluctant and shying away from everything. But if you’re lucky to live long enough\, there are always going to be peaks and troughs.” Time to welcome her back with open arms and loving ears. \nLiberty Hall\, Saturday February 1\, €22 \nPhoto: Press URL:https://www.totallydublin.ie/event/gig-highlight-isobel-campbell/ LOCATION:Liberty Hall Theatre\, Eden Quay\, Dublin\, Dublin 1\, Ireland CATEGORIES:Gig Listings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.totallydublin.ie/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/Isobel-Campbell.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200131T203000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200201T033000 DTSTAMP:20260920T041020 CREATED:20200128T112100Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200128T112218Z UID:69243-1580502600-1580527800@www.totallydublin.ie SUMMARY:Goodbye Vibrations with Terri Hooley DESCRIPTION:Ulster’s Godfather of Punk\, Hooley was the founder of the Good Vibrations record shop and label where he unearthed Stiff Little Fingers and The Undertones. Upon playing Teenage Kicks\, the legendary John Peel said\, “isn’t that the most wonderful record you’ve ever heard? In fact\, I’m going to play it again\,” making it the first song ever played twice\, back-to-back on the BBC. Hooley’s had the autobiographical treatment and cinematic immortalisation in a well-received indie feelgood flick. Now\, he’s is on another well-earned lap of honour deciding that 2020 will mark his final one on the decks. “I’d rather go out with a bit of a bang than just fade\,” he says\, and who are we to disagree.  \nMovie screening & Q&A with Stuart Bailie 7.30pm (€15) \nDJ Set 11pm (€10) \nhttps://vimeo.com/72748818 URL:https://www.totallydublin.ie/event/goodbye-vibrations-with-terri-hooley/ LOCATION:The Sugar Club\, 8 Lower Leeson Street\, Dublin 2\, Ireland CATEGORIES:DJ Set ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.totallydublin.ie/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Terri-Hooley-660x430-1.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200131T203000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200131T233000 DTSTAMP:20260920T041020 CREATED:20191218T141155Z LAST-MODIFIED:20191218T141155Z UID:68372-1580502600-1580513400@www.totallydublin.ie SUMMARY:Gig Highlight: Dan Deacon   DESCRIPTION:There was a time when Dan Deacon was in our lives almost as much as The National or John Grant. The love affair was mutual and we fondly remember him and his human tunnels in Andrew’s Lane (2009) and splitting up the field on the Friday evening of Body and Soul (2015). But then he kind of disappeared. Or rather he went off and scored some soundtracks for cycling doc Time Trial and Rat Film which explored Baltimore’s complicated history (as told through the city’s rat infestation). Well he’s back with a new album Mystic Familiar (Domino) bringing more kaleidoscopic\, synth-pop joy into our lives.

It’s being run on a goodwill basis\, with the hope of getting more people reading in the new year. \nIn conjunction with the Book Club\, The Back Page has committed to running at least one book or fanzine event per month.

But she’s far more than a sidekick to famous friends – over the past couple of years she’s been breaking out and building out her own audience\, and her powerful electro-pop spiked with influences from rap\, hip-hop and more makes her one of the most compelling new artists around.

It’s easy to see why he has also licensed his artwork to Apple for their iPhone backgrounds. Besides this\, Griffin has directed title sequences for Unbanned: The Legend Of AJ1 (Air Jordan’s if your street cred is flagging)\, worked for Nike on creating ‘environment and textual elements’ in support of Kanye West’s Yeezy II (The Red Octobers) as well as creating typography for Travis Scott’s ‘Rap Calendar’. He was also made global creative director of Los York Studios in 2018. Chromatic\, his first solo exhibition here\, is a collection of highly covetable large scale prints. (See Griffin’s talk at Offset 2018 here) \nRuns until Friday January 17 (gallery closed December 21 – January 5) \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  URL:https://www.totallydublin.ie/event/shane-griffin-chromatic/ LOCATION:Atelier Now\, Block 3\, Charlemont St\, Saint Kevin's\, Dublin\, D02 ET63\, Ireland CATEGORIES:Exhibition Listings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.totallydublin.ie/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/Chroma_pastel_ShaneGriffin_mint_18x24_4c0485c9-7b0e-44a4-a6d3-e6ec7399c2af_1024x1024@2x.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200113T103000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Stockholm:20200113T180000 DTSTAMP:20260920T041020 CREATED:20191218T135417Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200107T112515Z UID:68368-1578911400-1578938400@www.totallydublin.ie SUMMARY:Exhibition Highlight: Moment in Time DESCRIPTION:This truly is a roll call of the photographic greats – Brassaï\, Lartigue\, Cartier-Bresson\, Man Ray\, Adams\, Stieglitz\, Kertesz\, Cameron\, Lange\, Evans and many more. Boasting of 117 works by some of the important\, international\, photographers dating from the invention of the medium in the 1830s through the mid-twentieth century\, The Bank of America collection chronicles the history and evolution of photography as an art form and is grouped in sections such as documentary\, people\, nature and urban. It’s impossible not to be awed by the profound power of the medium as a witness to life or in its sheer abstract beauty. An extensive programme of talks\, screenings and a podcast series accompanies the exhibition which includes photographer Eric Luke\, whose work recently appeared on our Brand New Retro page\, in conversation with Miriam O’Callaghan as well as Perry Ogden in discussion with Vogue’s creative-director-at-large Grace Coddington. \nNational Gallery until Sunday March 22\, €5 / €15 \nPhoto: Brassaï (Gyula Halász) (French\, b.
