The countdown is officially on for our summer production of 'Goldilocks and the 3 Planets' taking place off site at Anaverna House, Ravensdale. 🚀🪐🌕☄️

📅 5th - 9th August | 1pm, 3pm & 5pm
🎟️ Tickets €15 Adults / €10 Child / €40 Family Pass (2 adult + 2 child tickets OR 1 adult + 3 child tickets) (+€1.50 booking fee per ticket per person)

Earth is getting a little too hot, so Goldilocks is sent on a mission to use her expert exploring skills to find a brand-new home for humankind — a planet that’s not too hot, not too cold, but juuuust right.

But things don’t go quite to plan when Baby Bear and a very peculiar tree — insist on coming along for the ride... Goldilocks must figure out what “just right” really means, and whether a perfect planet is something you find, or something you take care of.

Written by Ceara Carney.

Tickets must be pre-booked online or at Box Office. Call our box office on 042 9332332 (open until 4pm Tues-Sat) to check ticket availability for each performance in advance of travel.
