The International Dublin Gay Theatre Festival is in full swing at the moment and continues untill the 19th of May. All the details including the full programme are HERE.
We have two shows in Pantibar's basement during the festival. The first, The Undutchable - Tales Of The Nether Regions comes from Holland and runs unti Saturday. Tickets and schedule HERE.

Songs and stories of faggots and whores, fingers in dikes, equal opportunity shaggers and the vagaries of sexual frustration. The nether regions can be treacherous and murky, and Menno lays them bare with unforgiving Dutch frankness.
After two sell out runs with ‘The Gaydar Diaries' and ‘BUTCH - A Queen's Struggle To Become A King', Menno returns to the IDGTF for a third round, ready to blow the windmills of your mind.

The second show in Pantibar, All I Wanted Was The Dream, comes from Australia and runs all next week. Tickets and schedule HERE.

Behind the glitter, the makeup and the laughter, lives a real person. This is a REAL story.
After performing a New Year's Eve show at a nightclub, drag-queen Kris del Vayze enters the sanctum of the shabby makeshift dressing room and wonders what this ‘New Year' will bring by way of change: change to those suffering abuse, suffering bullying and inequality, and social change. Will things be better for the following generations than they were for her?
While removing the trappings and mantle of ‘dragdom' she reveals the person that is the masculine, private citizen, at the heart of the glamorous international drag artiste, Drags Aloud star, Kris del Vayse.
Written by M K der Veer. Performed by Kris del Vayze.
Tickets for both shows are also available on the door (unless sold out).

As part of a series of free events in association with the Dublin Gay Theatre Festival, tomorrow afternoon in the Exchange Collective Arts Centre (on Exchange St Upper in Temple Bar) theatre director Michael Scott will host an informal "audience with" style discussion about drag with our own Bunny, and the legendary Mr Pussy.
Sunday May 5th, 3pm.
"Veteran cross dressing entertainer Alan Ambsy (aka ‘Mr Pussy') and Northern Ireland's Drag Artiste, Chris Rowan, (aka ‘Bunny') explore their lives as performance artists throughout the decades in Ireland. Drag is a genre that kept gay life visible and built bridges of acceptance between mainstream society and the gay community. Did it contribute to a stereotype or is it a radical expression of identity in the arts.
Theatre Director Michael Scott hosts 'an audience with' type informal discussion with our two guests in the first of a series of three audience based discussions in The Exchange as part of the Free Programme of the Tenth International Dublin Gay Theatre Festival.
This is a free event - no pre-booking necessary and all are welcome.
Start time: 3pm (Duration 55 mins)"

Tonight in the bar we're hosting a pub quiz to support the Gay Theatre Festival and I'll be doing the quimistress duties. I'm very strict because they like it that way. Lots of great prizes from the likes of Warner Music, Hot Press, Gifted by Nature, Cully & Sully, Grey Goose Vodka and Bombay Sapphire and loads more. The quiz kicks off at 8pm, though if you haven't booked a table, best to get there a little early. And if you don't have a full team, not to worry, they'll sort you into one. Hopefully using the Sorting Hat. Hufflepuff!

9 to 5 The Musical is coming to the Grand Canal Theatre (you can call it the Bórd Gáis Energy Theatre if you want, but you and I can no longer be friends) later this month and I have a pair of tickets to give away to opening night on Monday January 21st.
The show is, of course, based on the 1980 hit movie of the same name starring Dolly, Jane Fonda, and Lily Tomlin (and which also featured Dolly's smash hit title song Working 9 to 5) and Dolly herself wrote all the music for the stage version which opened on Broadway in 2009.
TO ENTER: just drop me an e-mail to pantibliss@gmail.com putting 9 to 5 in the subject line, and then complete this line:
"Tumble outta bed, and stumble to the kitchen, ___ ______ _ ___ __ _______"
I'll chose a winner at random next Monday the 14th, so you'll have a week to find a date and plan yer outfit an' all.

I live across the road from the Abbey Theatre so the ongoing saga of it's will-it/won't-it/where/when redvelopment is close to my geographical heart. During the boom years it was all arguments about whether the theatre would move from it's current site (various options were discussed, from sites in the Docklands, to even a sillly suggestion that it take over the GPO) or try and redevelop on it's current site.
Thankfully, that discussion seems to be over now, after the Abbey announced on it's website today that an adjacent building on Eden Quay has been purchased: 15-17 Eden Quay, across the side lane from the theatre, facing onto the river.
Though I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for the redevelopment to begin, as Director of the Abbey Theatre, Fiach Mac Conghail said, "We have purchased this site next door so that we can redevelop, at some point in the future." I'm guessing the site came available and with prices what they are now it seemed sensible to purchase now and worry about the redevelopment later.

It does seem extremely brave to have the actors singing live, though I was very impressed with Anne Hathaway in the trailer.

thisispopbaby's new production Elevator will be premiering as part of the Absolut Dublin Fringe Festival.
Cairo, Bali, Copenhagen. The world is a playground in this music video of our lives.
A dazzling group of bright young things is reunited. It's a celebration. But the one person who holds them together vanishes as the festivities soar. A dreadful act and a sordid secret -- the party has to end some time.
And the mirror ball whispers: Disappear here.
Producing powerhouse THISISPOPBABY (Alice in Funderland, Trade, The Year of Magical Wanking, WERK) present this fractured parable of a world where everything is available, yet nothing ever satisfies.
Just when is enough, enough?
Tickets HERE.

This trailer for an Aussie reality show where they are looking for a Priscilla stage star looks fun. And it has Toni Collette so I'm on board.
I'm off to Australia for a few weeks next November so if you are reading this in Tasmania or Sydney, keep your eye out for my old lady glamour. I'll post details of the gigs closer to the time. I can't wait! Going to be so much fun. Think I'll get my hair cut like Lindy Chamberlain before I go.
