Lonely Planet review for Abbey Theatre
It is scheduled to move to a purpose-built location in the Docklands, but for now Ireland’s national theatre – including the smaller, experimental Peacock Theatre – still resides in a large concrete box by the river. It puts on new Irish works, as well as revivals of classic Irish plays by writers such as WB Yeats, JM Synge, Sean O’Casey, Brendan Behan and Samuel Beckett.
