Catch of the Day
8 / 10
No matter where events take us–a fishing boat, a convent, Windsor Castle, etc.–we are always at the pub in Dingle being captivated by people who are having as much of a ball relating this story as we are in watching it.
Catch of the Day
Closing: June 28, 2026Catch of the Day - 2026 Off-Broadway History , Info & More
Ireland, 1966.
A skipper sails into Dingle bay with a very unusual catch. What follows is a ridiculous series of events involving Eamon De Valera, Queen Elizabeth, and a surprising amount of nuns.
An unbelievable true story built from interviews, Catch of the Day is a raucous and little-bit-political play with live trad music, all set in a pub. This "side-splittingly funny" (The Irish Post) show has been teaching audiences about Anglo-Irish relations in very silly ways since 2018.

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Catch of the Day
Review: "Catch of the Day" Serves Up a Hilarious Local History
7 / 10
As they narrate the fate of the fish, the four friends act out the various characters in the tale, from local children to English royalty, using few more props than some bar towels and an empty plastic crate. In addition to being terrific musicians and singers, the cast has tremendous, infectious comedic chemistry in both their primary roles as the pubgoers and the fishermen at the core of their story and in smaller ones.
