Abbey Theatre
The Abbey Theatre has been the national theatre of Ireland for almost 100 years and is known for its quality productions. The original theatre was located on this site but is no longer standing, as it was destroyed by fire in 1951. It was replaced in 1966 with a plain and functional building, and seats 600. Tickets typically range from € 15 - 26. There are discounts for seniors, students, and children on Mon - Thurs evenings and the Saturday matinees.
