Reunion will make its UK premiere at Kiln Theatre, London from 11 September – 11 October, followed by a return trip to the Gaiety Theatre, Dublin for a limited 2-week run from 21 October – 2 November.

The production played sold-out runs at Galway International Arts Festival (July 2024) and the Gaiety Theatre as part of Dublin Theatre Festival (October 8-13) and was met with critical acclaim, garnering 5-star reviews.

A family gathers for a celebration on an island off the west coast of Ireland.

When an unexpected visitor drops by, tensions begin to surface. Over the next 24 hours, scores will be settled, beliefs challenged, and truths disclosed, ultimately jeopardising their very future together.

Mark O’Rowe turns his laser focus on the deep currents of family life with a masterfully orchestrated story which resonates with biting humour, profound insights and extraordinary authenticity.

Reunion stars a roll-call of Ireland’s finest actors: Ian-Lloyd Anderson, Venetia Bowe, Stephen Brennan, Leonard Buckley, Simone Collins, Peter Corboy, Desmond Eastwood, Kate Gilmore and Catherine Walker.

Landmark Productions and Galway International Arts Festival are grateful to Culture Ireland for its support of the production.
