Written by Brian Friel

It’s August 1833. The pupils have gathered in a hedge-school in the townland of Baile Beag/Ballybeg; an Irish-speaking community in County Donegal which has become the unlikely focal point for a changing world.
Progress is coming. Tensions are growing. There are plans for a new English-speaking national school and a recently arrived detachment of the Royal Engineers are making the first Ordnance Survey. For the purposes of cartography, the local Gaelic place names are to be recorded and rendered into English…
Brian Friel’s modern masterpiece Translations examines the fractious relationship between people and nations through the lens of language and (mis)communication.

Before she was hit-maker Carole King — she was Carole Klein, a spunky, young songwriter from Brooklyn with a unique voice.
Telling the inspiring true story of King’s remarkable rise to stardom, the chart-topping hits she wrote for the biggest acts in music with her husband Gerry Goffin, to her relationship with fellow writers and best friends Cynthia Weil and Barry Mann, to her own life-changing, trailblazing success with Tapestry, Beautiful: The Carole King Musical takes you back to where it all began — and takes you on the ride of a lifetime!
Along the way, she wrote the soundtrack to a generation, with countless classics such as "You've Got a Friend", "One Fine Day", "So Far Away", "Take Good Care of My Baby", "Up on the Roof", "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling", “The Loco-Motion”, “It’s Too Late”, “Will You Love Me Tomorrow", and “(You Make Me Feel like a) Natural Woman", this Tony® and Grammy® Award-winning musical phenomenon is filled with the songs you remember and a story you'll never forget.
We are a diverse theatre and we welcome auditionees of all ages (above the age of 18) and all genders, ethnicities, sexualities, disabilities and races, to enrich the work of the production.
