Abbey Theatre Reviews

First night of Last Orders at the Dockside Dublin in the Rare Auld Times Hottest ticket in town Dublin 5 in a Row and now this great times to be a Dub you guys smashed it Congrats

Nice teather in town very Irish often hostes free shows but you need to queue for hours to get a seat, good luck!

Outstanding production of Asking for It. Friendly place with powerful sense of the history of theatre in Ireland.

What a wonderful place, excellent theatre, thougherly enjoyable

Loved it! such excitement going to the theatre, everytime.

National treasure. Loved very play I've seen here. Easy to get to, pleasant staff.

Went to see Ulysses 02/10/2017 in the Abbey. Really enjoyable production. Such a busy play but well acted and really was a blast.

Hansel and Grettle was a wonderful Opera by the INO. A wonderful ndependent company. Well done

Saw brilliant production of Jimmys hall. Beautiful theatre

Very professional, and even from the sides the view of the stage is excellent.

A very inspiring, high quality theatre! I am never disappointed! I came to several free previews. This was a great experience!

Drama at Inish was brilliant, really funny. Lovely theatre

It's small but it has soul. Every place has a good view, sound goes well to every corner, and the cast are always great. The crew as well.

Drama at Innis is a lighthearted fun night out in a lovely theatre. It's seasonal fare for those of us too old for pantomime

Best theatre in Dublin.
Staff extremely professional friendly.

Great night out at the Abbey theatre. The plays are brilliant, cultured, funny and very entertaining. Lovely staff

Lovely theatre. Coffees served before the show would have been nice as I was coming from work and needed a coffee... but none on offer. Enjoyed great James Joyce play, Ulysses lately.

Excellent city centre theatre with a varied programme. Good value for a capital city, good view even from the back seats.

Went to see Jimmys Hall. Fantastic production, fantastic theatre with plenty of space and a great view no matter where you're seated

Always a joy at the Irish national theatre, whether its the mainstage or the edgier peacock, its worth a visit

Excellent play Really enjoyed it. A must for all Dubliners

Great plays from Ireland and a large bar with friendly staff well worth a visit !

Fantastic venue with a rich cultural history. Every seat in the house has an excellent view of the stage.

Single best theater in Dublin! Always showcasing great Irish talent. The Abbey also has particularly deep roots connected to Irish history; this was basically the theater that fought to help preserve Irish culture and arts during British Colonial rule. Highly recommend stopping by for a show when in Dublin!

Super friendly staff, nice drink before show, really well laid out. Saw the great show Come from away. Ashamed to say first time in Abbey... night t the last

Just been to see a Dermot Bolger production. FANTASTIC

Ireland's national theatre mentors new and classic Irish dramatic writing, performance, design and also brings International productions to Ireland.

Abbey Theater, brilliant, you just have to experience it for yourself, one of Dublin's. Great Theatres,

Love this theatre always first class performance and Last orders at the Dockside did not disappoint the bar is comfortable and service is fast

love the abbey for culture and learning nights all in one.

Loved the place, watched Drama at Inish. No visit to Ireland is complete without a visit to the theatre

Fab venue and wonderful sets. The late ticket system is poor however, relying on civility which not all theatre goers possess...

Nice theatre - went to see All That Fall... terrible play, but sure what can you do.

Spectacular Theatre and extra special when ther,s an outstanding Irish Drama/Play running

Enjoyed excellent performance of "Waiting for Goddo" in modern theatre. Seat got a bit uncomfortable after two and a half hours of use.

The theatre itself was fine - just the show was terrible - 2 pints. Language completely over the top.

Beautiful theatre, comfortable and welcoming, and always showing excellent shows.

Great small intimate theatre, viewing from any seat is good. Could do with a cafe/ snack bar for preperformance

A thoroughly enjoyable experience. Lovely theatre. Great ambiance. Would love to go back again. Marian

A wonderful modern theatre staging a wide variety of performances. Every time I go here, I forget how small it is. There really are no bad seats in the Abbey. There is a bar upstairs serving a reasonable selection of drinks, though only two draught beers. Ticket prices are reasonable too. Find a show that appeals to you, and just go here.

Lovely theatre,the play the manageable sisters was fantastic and very funny

They make the worst coffee in the city cold & tepid & tasts like tepid water......Its not rocket science to make a good cup of coffee!!

Wonderful theatre and prices are relatively low if you book your tickets early enough.

It's not easy to just rate the theater itself without taking into account the piece we saw there. It's not the historic Abbey of the 1920s. The current building is from the 1980s, I would appreciate. It's not very pretentious or plush in the auditorium, but the acoustics are good for that. And the crew at the box office is Irish-friendly. The piece was sensational by the way ... that was not the location, but the author. It had on it. Shakespeare.

Just saw one of the most original musicals I've had the pleasure of attending in years in the Abbey, Come From Away, what a great idea and delivery from a super cast.

Very nice Theatre in the heart of Dublin, very cosy, beautiful room.
the play was excellently executed, only downside was the rumbling of the DART passing by.

Great plays and actors. Theatre-building itself not classic but with history.

Beautiful. Our national theatre, right in the middle of the city centre. Lovely friendly staff (thank you in particular to Marie, front of house). Layout is fantastic with seating perfectly terraced for unobstructed views of the stage. Comfortable bar (check out those portraits) on the first floor. An absolute gem.

A great theatre with friendly staff. Seem to put on great work!

We went to se Come from Away what an amazing show from beginning to end. Very well organised and helpful staff.

Great place offering cloak room, simple bar with smiling service. And the play I've seen was great
