Seen by over 60,000 people at 3Olympia since its debut in 2011, The Night Joe Dolan’s Car Broke Down is back by popular demand for a strictly limited run this February.
Imagine being stranded with the legendary Joe Dolan in a rural pub in Cavan on the night his car breaks down… That’s exactly the hilarious, heartwarming scenario brought to life in Padraic McIntyre’s beloved play.
Set on a stormy St. Stephen’s Night, locals gather to celebrate The Horse Munley’s 60th birthday. As the storm worsens and guests begin to leave, a mysterious knock on the door changes the night’s entertainment forever. What follows is a riotous mix of comedy, drama, music, and secrets revealed, all set to the unforgettable soundtrack of Joe Dolan.
This side-splitting, feel-good show has been a sell-out success in theatres nationwide and is a must-see for theatre lovers and Joe Dolan fans alike.
Early booking is strongly advised – every run has sold out!
