Bush Theatre

They stand at the edge of a circle. They look across at her, standing there too. Every day, for the last seven years, they’ve both stepped inside. Together. Again and again and again. And today, they go again.

A queer play about why and how we choose to pay attention.
About the effort and sweat needed to build a life with someone.
About whether love is enough to save us.

Every night the actors will choose how to tell the story – they might restart, fast-forward, stop altogether. Every night, they navigate the truth of their relationship like a match between two players. Every night, they try to end on the same page.

Co-created by acclaimed director Jules Head and Bruntwood Prize shortlisted writer Georgia Bruce, ATTENTION was nominated for 7 awards at the Dublin Fringe Awards, including Best Production and the Radical Spirit Award. Original cast members Bláithín Mac Gabhann and Norah Lopez Holden return.

Most people go for smart casual - think jeans or trousers with a nice top, a casual dress, or a shirt and trainers. If you’re heading to an evening show, on a date, or celebrating something, you might fancy dressing up a bit more, but it’s completely optional.
Arriving at least 30 minutes before the scheduled start time helps keep things smooth and stress-free, giving you plenty of time to collect tickets, go through security, and get settled in your seat before the performance begins.
