Your Roots, Your Story: Storytelling Workshops in the Abbey Theatre Rehearsal Room

Tickets: €25 per person

Your Roots, Your Story: Storytelling Workshops in the Abbey Theatre Rehearsal Room, this St. Patrick’s Festival weekend.

Step behind the scenes and into the world of Irish storytelling at the iconic Abbey Theatre Rehearsal Room this St. Patrick’s Festival.

Inspired by this year’s festival theme “Roots”, this fun and interactive workshop invites you to explore the stories that shape who you are — from family memories and traditions to tales passed down through generations.

Guided by expert facilitator Phil Kingston, you’ll learn how to bring a personal story to life using simple theatre techniques, imagination, and the power of performance. No acting experience needed – just curiosity and a story to share.

A lively, welcoming experience for festival visitors looking to connect with Ireland’s rich storytelling tradition in a unique and memorable way.

Come along, get inspired, and discover the magic of storytelling through theatre.

Perfect for couples and groups of friends and family, suitable for ages 18+
