Also in May, local group, The Grove, brings their latest musical production of the ever popular, Grease. OurYouth Musical this year is Fame The Musical. Once again, our incredibly talented young people will amaze you with their performances in this all singing, all dancing musical set in NewYork’s famous School of Performing Arts which is with us in July.

They will love Dinosaur World Live in July as they experience the dangers and delights of the prehistoric world in this engaging and interactive show. June sees the Ulster Orchestra team up with CBeebies to bring a fun-filled musical ocean adventure for all the family. Also in June, we have the Ukrainian troupe of artistes, MIMIRICHI, with their unique and utterly bonkers show, Paper World.

There is music with the return of the ever popular Daniel O’Donnell and The Magic Of Motown in June, whilst audience favourite, Rhythm of the Dance, is back with a brand new production.
Looking ahead, we are excited to welcome the hugely popular West End touring production of Dirty Dancing to our stage again later in the year. Tickets for this are expected to be in big demand, so I would advise you book your seats for this as early as possible.
