SUMMARY:The Last Five Years
DESCRIPTION:What if you could watch a relationship from both ends at once? The Last Five Years charts the highs\, lows\, and crossed wires of a couple navigating love alongside individual dreams. Cathy tells her story from the break-up backwards\, Jamie from the first spark forwards — and somewhere in the middle\, their timelines meet. \nIt’s funny\, tender\, and painfully honest: the everyday mix-ups that snowball into poor choices\, the thrill of ambition\, and the way success for one and failure for the other quietly erode what once felt unshakable. \nStarring Karen Gordon as Cathy\, bringing warmth\, wit\, and emotional precision to a modern musical gem about the cost of chasing dreams and the truths we don’t want to face\, alongside Warren McCook as Jamie\, whose performance captures the drive\, optimism\, and unraveling journey of a man chasing success and love in parallel. \nWritten and composed by\nJASON ROBERT BROWN \nDirected by Kieran Griffiths\nMusical Direction by Niamh Crowley\nStarring Karen Gordon\, Warren McCook \nOriginally Produced for the New York stage by Arielle Tepper and Marty Bell\nOriginally Produced by Northlight Theatre\, Chicago\, USA\nPerformed by arrangement with Music Theatre International

SUMMARY:Jack Butler Yeats; The Living Ginger
DESCRIPTION:Jack Butler Yeats; The Living Ginger\nFri. 6 Mar. – Sun. 27 Sep. 2026\nPlease note\, that the exhibition The Living Ginger will be temporarily closed on Friday morning\, 22nd May\, until 2.30pm.\nJack B. Yeats used the phrase “the living ginger” to describe the vital spark he believed a great painting must contain — an inner charge that animates the image beyond mere description. For Yeats\, this energy was not simply visual; it was emotional\, psychological and imaginative. It was the pulse of lived experience. \nAcross a career spanning more than seventy years\, Yeats sought out figures who embodied this vitality. Performers\, sailors\, children at play and solitary figures — characters drawn from memory and from his early life in Sligo — recur throughout his work. Rarely settled within social settings\, they often stand alone\, absorbed in their own worlds\, heightening a sense of introspection and distance. \nYeats worked primarily in watercolour between 1898 and 1910 before turning decisively to oils. Many of his central concerns first take shape during this formative period and re-emerge with renewed intensity in the later paintings. The solitary figure emerges early as a powerful device\, a means of concentrating feeling and staging inner drama. Even at this stage\, themes of displacement and heightened atmosphere are evident. A clear continuity runs between these early works and the celebrated late oils of the 1940s and 1950s. Yeats repeatedly revisited the imagery of his youth\, allowing memory to reshape and intensify earlier motifs. Simple figures reappear decades later\, transformed by colour and gesture. Their energy ignites the surface of the canvas\, while their vulnerability opens onto something universal. \nIn these characters\, Yeats was not documenting social types. He was searching for that essential spark — the living ginger. \nImage: Jack Butler Yeats; The Crest of the Hill\, 1904\, watercolour.
