Every kind of sound imaginable.

Yes. Just slide the arrow across and see Sir Michael Colgan! A really skinny hipster in great glasses! People holding programmes! They were all there last night to crack open the Dublin Theatre Festival programme. And yes, it was as much fun as it looks. It’s not every night you get to meet royalty and take home a free programme.

The brochure-like programme, stapled for easy use, will enable theatregoers an opportunity to plan their theatre going in advance of the performance. An invaluable guide. (All pix by Photocall Ireland)

Throw him a frickin’ bone for chrissakes. Who dresses a dog like that? Still. He does look happy. And why not? Last night he got to meet Director of the Ulster Bank (cough) Dublin Theatre Festival Loughlin Deegan. In what BS has decided might be a stroke of genius (one, sadly, too late for Monty) Loughlin and his friends are putting on a competition for actors to vie for the role of Hamlet. The, eh, great Dane. The festival’s not on until September so this was the launch of the programme. In about an hour we shall have another of our wonderful slide shows where you can see who else would literally turn up to the launch of a theatre programme.  The dog’s name is Toby. Good morning.

Impress your friends. Read the programme online here
