Wow! What weekend! Our heartfelt thanks to everyone who attended The Chronicles of Tallaght on Saturday and Sunday.

We had an amazing time reliving the 70s & 80s with all of our guests. The feedback we received was fantastic and made all of the hard work worthwhile. We're all still buzzing from it, although there are a lot of tired bodies in TCA HQ today!

Here's a selection of photographs taken over the course of the "Two-Day Time Machine Festival" and we'll have loads more to share with you over the coming days.

Photography by Conor Keegan & Leo Kearney.

The Chronicles of Tallaght is funded by The Arts Council of Ireland, SDCC Arts Office, and Creative Ireland.

A selection of Behind The Scenes quick snaps taken today as the cast of The Chronicles of Tallaght went through their bus rehearsal.
Our wonderful cast are: Sharon Doyle, Laura Ní Ríordáin, Craig Long, Cian Whelan, and Erin Murray Boyne.
And a shout out to our very patient bus driver Alan Gibbons.

With only 1 day to go, there's still some time to get your ticket, if you haven't already. A very small number of seats have become available for three of the shows.

We have limited availability for the 7pm and 8pm shows on Saturday 10th, and for the 7pm show on Sunday 11th.

These tickets are going fast, so get yours now, while you still can, on Eventbrite. Just search for "Chronicles of Tallaght" or go to:

https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-chronicles-of-tallaght-tickets-2002072532840

Also, just a little reminder that we need you to arrive at The Making Space about 15-20 minutes in advance of the show you booked. So if you have a ticket for the 6pm show, please aim to arrive at The Making Space (on Mountain Park) at about 5:40-5:45pm, and so forth. The bus will depart precisely on time for each show and it won't be waiting, so please do be punctual in order to avoid disappointment.

Unfortunately the bus isn't fully wheelchair accessible, however accessibility is central to our ethos and the work we do, so we have created an area in The Making Space for people who cannot (or who would prefer not to) travel on the bus, so that they can also enjoy the film and the street party with us!

Thank you once again to everyone who booked a ticket. We can't wait to see you this weekend for our Two-Day Time Machine Festival!

Dressing up in your finest 1970s/1980s gear is optional but strongly encouraged!

And don't forget the street party will be outdoors at The Making Space, so keep an eye on the weather forecast and bring a raincoat if you need to!

See you there!

We have a very important note about The Chronicles of Tallaght from The Bus Conductor (AKA TCA Office Manager Sharon Doyle) and TCA CEO & Creative Director Sharon Devlin.

With only 1 day to go until The Chronicles of Tallaght kicks off, we want to remind all attendees about the accessibility of the event.

The Chronicles of Tallaght bus is partially accessible. We wanted to get a fully accessible bus, but unfortunately we couldn't find one available anywhere. However, the bus does have a special set of stairs that can come right down low to the ground, and we can help and support people to get on and off wherever necessary.

Accessibility is central to our ethos and the work we do, so we have created an area in The Making Space for people who cannot (or who would prefer not to) travel on the bus, so that they can also enjoy the film.

There's a viewing room set up in The Making Space, and for people who have additional needs, we can turn it into a really nice sensory area as well. So it'll be a beautiful place for everybody to watch the film and then join the street party afterwards.

Also, there's some good news for those who missed out! A very small number of tickets have now become available for some of the shows.

We have limited availability for the 7pm and 8pm shows on Saturday 10th, and for the 7pm show on Sunday 11th.

With only 3 days to go (yikes!) until The Chronicles of Tallaght Two-Day Time Machine Festival, here's a selection of Behind The Scenes photos of the cast and crew hard at it this week!

We are delighted to say that all six performances of The Chronicles of Tallaght are now fully booked out! Thank you so much to everyone who secured their ticket, we can't wait to see you at the weekend!

Focusing on the 1970s and 1980s, the "Two-Day Time Machine Festival" will begin with an immersive bus tour of Tallaght, with live performances by our amazing actors and an audiovisual presentation of our Wheeling in the Years film, packed full of memories!

The last stop on the tour will take us back to The Making Space in Mountain Park, where there'll be a 1980s style street party. Our live band will provide the beautifully nostalgic soundtrack!

Unfortunately the bus isn't fully wheelchair accessible, however accessibility is central to our ethos and the work we do, so we have created an area in The Making Space for people who cannot (or who would prefer not to) travel on the bus, so that they can also enjoy the film and the street party with us!

Our event partners SOFFT Productions will provide technical production support during both days of the event.

Looking forward to seeing you there!
