Comedic Dinner Theatre

Our must-do, inimitable comedy theatre experience is a fast-paced, side-splitting adventure that you won’t find anywhere else in Ireland — or the world!

The main ‘Comedic Dinner Theatre Experience’ takes place upstairs at Amicus Restaurant in Cork’s historic Huguenot Quarter. Written and performed by established professional Irish actors, this jam-packed performance celebrates all things Cork in true local style.

Over two and a half hours, you’ll discover the highlights of Cork’s 1,500-year history and meet a county full of quirky characters, unique habits, local humour, and colourful language. Enjoy delicious local Cork food and drinks, live music, and plenty of personality as you interact with the actors. You’ll leave with a belly full of food, a warm heart — and a new skill: how to “speak Cork”!

The ‘Comedic Dinner Theatre Experience’ is also available as a private performance at a venue of your choice, with a menu you can select. A shorter version, the ‘Taste of Cork Lunch’ show, is perfect for daytime laughs. For a different twist, we also offer a customisable ‘Private Walking Tour’ of Cork’s must-see sights.
