LANDMARK NEW WRITING
A Landmark New Play by Phillip McMahon
Set in the family room of a Dublin hospital, this landmark new play explores grief, families, class and the city. Featuring an all-star cast and creative team, this confronting and electric piece asks: who gets to participate in society? Who gets to participate in their own family? And who gets to resolve the past in the present?
Sweet Caroline is a major theatrical event from the acclaimed playwright Phillip McMahon, who writes authentically about the working class, building on 20 years of playmaking experience to present a bold and unflinching play about the now.
Reuniting the creative team of Phillip McMahon, Wayne Jordan and Jennifer Jennings (Alice in Funderland, Elevator), Sweet Caroline is playing as part of POPXX - THISISPOPBABY’s Twenty Year Anniversary Programme 2027-2028.
