Rush Dramatic Society Performances

The Rush Dramatic Society performances run from September - May annually. Our first performance of the season will be our Genesis - this is an opportunity for the group to try out a different piece of work. This performance only lasts for 8 nights and is not part of our Patron Scheme. There are 3 main shows for the remainder of the season that fall within our patron scheme. Each of these Patron Scheme show's run for 12 nights over a 3 week period.

For queries or to sign up to the patron scheme please email: manager@millbanktheatre.ie

All ticket sales from opening night will support a local community group or charity. If you are interested in becoming a beneficary of one of our opening nights please contact manager@millbanktheatre.ie.

Following this, we’ll host two exclusive preview nights on Thursday and Friday, offering tickets at a discounted rate of €10. Don’t miss these exciting early performances!

Ulster American for Rush First Responders - Charity Night

Wednesday 6th May 2026 at 8.30pm €20 (+€1 booking fee)

Set in a London House of a Director Leigh,  the play brings together three characters: Leigh Carver, a brash and egotistical Oscar-winning American actor; Jay Conway, a proud Northern Irish theatre director; and Ruth Davenport, a feminist Northern Irish playwright whose new play they are about to stage. What begins as a polite meet-and-greet devolves into a volatile clash of egos, ideologies, and national identities.

As the men try to assert control over Ruth’s work—each with his own agenda—underlying misogyny, nationalism, and performative liberalism explode into violence. The play is both hilariously outrageous and deeply unsettling, holding a mirror up to the arrogance of privilege and the complexities of cultural appropriation.

Note: The play is known for its controversial content and strong language, and is intended for mature audiences. Over 16s Only
