Rubberbandits to tread the hallowed boards of the Abbey Theatre

The award-wining Limerick duo to perform in iconic Dublin venue

Eric Lalor

The award-wining Limerick duo are set to perform in the iconic Dublin venue in March.

Good news comedy fans! It’s been announced that the Rubberbandits will perform for  three nights at the Abbey Theatre in Dublin.

The masters of comedy hip-hop are bringing their genius musical, Continental Fistfight, to the Abbey.

The Abbey Theatre said that the Artistic Director of Shakespeare’s Globe asked the lads to perform the musical last May in the intimate Sam Wanamaker Playhouse and it was a roaring success.

The Rubberbandits have long been one of the leading lights in Irish comedy.

Russell Brand counts himself as a big fan of the duo and they’ve collaborated on a few projects together. Check out their Parklife parody over here.

They will be performing on the Peacock Stage in the Abbey on March 26, 27 and 28 with tickets priced at €18/€15 (Conc.).
