Gabriel Byrne’s best-selling memoir Walking With Ghosts is adapted and directed by award-winning director Lonny Price live on stage at the Apollo Theatre.
Gabriel Byrne sought refuge in a world of imagination as a young boy growing up on the outskirts of Dublin. In and amongst the hills and fields near his family home, on the outskirts of a fast encroaching city. Drifting in and out between sensual recollection of his childhood in an Ireland that has now almost vanished and a fascinating commentary on Hollywood stardom and fame on Broadway, Byrne reflects on a life’s amazing journey.
Filled with hilarious and heartbreaking twists and turns, Walking with Ghosts is a lyrical homage to the places and people that ultimately shape all of our destinies.
Emmy award-winning director Lonny Price directs and is joined in the creative team by Sinéad Diskin (sound designer and composer), Sinéad McKenna (set and lighting designer), and Joan O’Clery (costume designer).
