Accidental Theatre Description
ACCIDENTAL'S THEATRE IS A COLLISION of perspectives, art forms and unusual collaborations ‚Äď curious stories told through vibrant, ambitious performances.
We work with playwrights, actors, filmmakers, DJs, choreographers, musicians, poets, painters, technicians and curators to craft plays for Ireland and the world stage. Every production is a fresh invention, each play’s architecture defined by the artists with whom we build it. Collective risk-taking is the inspiration that jolts our work into new theatrical territories and opens it up to new audiences.
Accidental walks the tightrope between the unexpected and the impossible, exploring the intersection between British narrative and European aesthetic styles of theatre.

Our brand new play Mayday! hits our stage at the end of the month. A mad comedy about Theresa May and how the heck we ended up with the largest political mess we'll ever get to to enjoy in our lifetime. (We fudging hope!)
By Rosemary Jenkinson and starring Jo Donnelly as Theresa May and a cardboard cutout as Jeremy Corbyn. This hot take on the impending careening career demise of our Prime Minister enjoys the downward spiral as only we in Northern Ireland can.
It's our border... & we'll backstop if we want to!

The brilliant Rosemary Jenkinson & Jo Donnelly are working with Accidental Theatre for our latest theatrical outing:
MAYDAY! Thurs 30 & Fri 31 May | 8pm
... May 2019 ‚Äď Theresa May is holed up in Downing Street. Her only companions are her beloved Withdrawal Agreement, her whiskey and, somewhat unusually, Jeremy Corbyn!
All around her, enemies are plotting, telling even more lies than Boris Johnson, but will Brexit mean her exit or will the Dancing Queen find enough fancy footwork to live to fight another day?
Mayday! is the brand new rapid response show from the team of Michelle & Arlene.
