NEXT PRODUCTION: CUCKOO TIME

By Carmel Winters

14 OCTOBER - 1 NOVEMBER 2025

“No-one should leave this world unloved. That’s the worst thing that can happen.

Worse than death?

Much worse…”

Two oddballs - her a volatile Swedish jazz singer, who has burnt her bridges with both her daughter and the local Irish community that rejects her, him a bird-loving older widower lost in time - are washed up together on a farm on the edge of the Atlantic. Fuelled by birdsong and brandy they try and live out the love story each of them has secretly longed for and been denied. But the world has no time for this scandalous - and explosive - pairing and takes action to burst their bubble. Separated in time and space, something of their odd misshapen love survives and is witnessed even if only by the birds…

“Whatever is wrong with you is just right for me."

A new play by Carmel Winters written for the Glass Mask Theatre Stage.

What makes GMT Jazz Club so special?

For only a few nights a year the Glass Mask Theatre transforms itself from the most intimate theatre space nestled in the heart of Dublin City Centre into a slice of New Orleans. We invite you to an evening of blues and swing in our boutique theatre to enjoy the musical workings of some of the best Jazz artists in Dublin.

These concerts are of course always paired with our bespoke drink and dining service. See our menu at the till of Bestseller Café, or click the button below.

This is a night to savour, so please arrive well in advance of the 7pm show time to settle in and enjoy our pre-show wine-and-dine ritual. These gold-dusted tickets sell fast, so book now for the summer season to avoid disappointment!
