0800-CUPID is a genre-defying queer cabaret show written, composed, and performed by Emer Dineen, produced by THISISPOPBABY and directed by Phillip McMahon. The show traces an extraordinary year in Dineen's life — navigating her father's dementia diagnosis, a Tourette's diagnosis, the loss of her call-centre job, and her nightlife career in drag as the alter ego 'Cupid' — all set against the pulse of London's club scene. Featuring a live band with Tom Beech, Michael McCarthy, and Osazee Aiguokhian, alongside cast members Isabel Adomakoh Young and Carl Harrison, the show transforms the stage into an avant-garde nightclub experience. Originally a standout hit at a 2024 festival before transferring to Soho Theatre London to critical acclaim, 0800-CUPID now tours Ireland through July 2026.
