Before by Pat Kinevane
Tallaght, Co. Dublin
2 July 2025
This father’s journey is both beautiful and strange, from the isolation of his Midlands home, to the madness of O’Connell Street. Some folk are impossible to buy for…

From the team that brought you ‘Forgotten’, ‘Underneath’ and the Olivier Award-winning ‘Silent’, ‘Before’ is a play with much music, set in Clery’s of Dublin, on the very day this iconic department store shuts – for good. Pontius is inside, trying to choose a gift for his estranged daughter, whom he hasn’t seen for almost 20 years. He will meet her in an hour.

Presented By: Fishamble: The New Play Company

Duration: 80 mins. No interval

Fishamble: The New Play Company is supports by the Arts Council, Dublin City Council and Culture Ireland.
