At Moat Theatre · Abbey Road, Naas, Co. Kildare
Movicals comes to the Moat Theatre on Wednesday 21 October 2026, a revue built entirely around songs from film musicals rather than stage productions. The programme moves across five decades of cinema, with Les Miserables, Fame and Mamma Mia among the titles named in the billing.
The show is staged as a full production with lighting and choreography rather than a concert performance, which suits material written for the screen and then adapted back to a stage setting. It sits in the Moat’s busy October run, a month that also carries Deirdre O’Kane on 20 and 22 October, Bill Laurance in Naas on 23 October and Enya Martin on the same night, so the town has a dense fortnight of programming around this date. Tickets are €30 plus a booking fee, sold through the theatre’s own Ticketsolve system. The show runs from 8:00 PM to around 10:00 PM.
Naas is off the M7, about 35 km south-west of Dublin, signposted from the motorway junctions. The Moat Theatre is on Abbey Road, a short walk from the main street, with town centre car parking nearby. Buses run regularly between Dublin city centre and Naas on weekday evenings. Sallins and Naas railway station, on the Dublin Heuston commuter line, is roughly 4 km from the theatre, with taxis generally available.
