The Abbey Theatre is committed to making the thrill of live theatre accessible to as wide an audience as possible.  

In response to requests for more varied performance times, we are piloting an earlier start of 6.30pm for all Monday and Tuesday performances of The Sugar Wife from the 24th of June.  

Whether you’re an early bird, have further to travel or post-show dinner plans, or want to make the most of longer summer evenings, our 6.30pm offering might be the ticket. As always, our bar will be open before and after every performance for conversation and connection.  

We would love to hear your feedback on this pilot and how we can continue to offer greater flexibility to our audiences. 

Evening performances during the rest of the week will remain at 7.30pm, while Saturday matinees will continue to start at 2pm.
