The Final Weekend of the Fringe

The last weekend of the Fringe is upon us and there is still quite a bit to see and do with Mind The Gap.

Operetta
Friday 18th, 6 pm - Foster Place
(This peformance is short and snappy so get there on time to avoid disappointment).

A lone performer looks out over the
city and sings a lament to its citizens. Mind The
Gap presents a solo operatic performance on
Foster Place of arias that highlight the current
plight of the city and its uncertain future.


Flower Show
Saturday 19th, 12-3pm - Smithfield Plaza
(All materials are provided free)

Following from the tradition of
competitive window box competitions in the
Smithfield area, Mind The Gap offer you the
chance to come to Smithfield Plaza and design
your own flower box display to be adjudicated
by Lord Ross of Birr Castle, Father to Lord
Oxmantown. Take this opportunity to bring plant
life to the plaza.

Don't Quote Me
Saturday 18th, 8.30pm - 10.30pm (note time changes)

Projected on the outside
of the iconic Screen cinema, Mind The Gap
looks to the silver screen to investigate
Dublin’s current dilemmas. The city, planning,
corruption, and the fall of a nation are explored
through the history of cinema.

The Big Freeze
Sunday 20th, 3pm
(Again this will be short and snappy so get there early)

Goethe famously said
“architecture is frozen music.” Taking
inspiration from the architecture of Smithfield
Plaza, a brass band will perform The Ride of
The Valkyries by Wagner. This collaborative
performance highlights the
peaks and troughs of Smithfield Square
as a public space.
