There’s just over one week to go until On Blueberry Hill opens at Trafalgar Studios.

Following hugely successful and sell-out seasons in Dublin and New York, Fishamble’s critically acclaimed production of Sebastian Barry’s first new play in 10 years opens at Trafalgar Studios on 5 March for a strictly limited season until 2 May. Press night is scheduled for 11 March.

The play has received great acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic with The New York Times describing it as “Radiant”, The New Yorker stating the play is “Beautiful” and “Mesmerising”, The Sunday Independent calling the new work “Phenomenal” and The British Theatre Guide hailing it as “Perfection”.

In Barry’s beautiful style, On Blueberry Hill features best of friends and worst of enemies; Christy (Irish Times Theatre Award and Olivier Award winner Niall Buggy) and PJ (West End and Broadway star David Ganly), who are destined to share their lives for twenty years. As the two men reflect on the hope and torment of life outside – they slowly uncover the events that have led them to their world with explosive, bittersweet consequences.

This production of On Blueberry Hill was originally produced by Fishamble and will be produced in the West End by Trafalgar Theatre Productions and Fishamble.
