Choose life, choose a job, choose a ticket.

Trainspotting will be hitting the Olympia Theatre, Dublin for one week only in May 2018.

Based on the shocking novel by Irvine Welsh, this new theatrical production runs from Tuesday 8 to Saturday 12 May.

Adapted from Welsh’s book by Harry Gibson and directed by Tracy Ryan, the show has already earned much praise for bringing to life the gritty drug-soaked world of Edinburgh during the 1980’s.

Starring Shane O’Regan, Fionn Foley, Meg Healy and Lorcan Strain, the show will also feature a live DJ, who will be spinning 80s dance music before and after the performance.

Tickets cost €25.00, including booking fee and are on sale now via Ticketmaster.
