Dame Stuffy 🤩

Are you ready?... 🙈

Exciting announcement coming soon. 🎭

Dublin drag queen goes viral on TikTok after gas 'disturbing' video Dublin drag queen Dame Stuffy is officially TikTok famous after posting a bizarrely hilarious yet 'disturbing' video which has us in stitches.

On behalf of us all at Holding Court Theatre Group we wish extend our deepest sympathies to the family & friends of Fergus. He was one of our biggest and most loyal supporters during our many years at Axis Ballymun and his presence will be sorely missed. He was, a true gentleman.

All at axis were deeply saddened today to hear of the passing of Fergus Breathnach.
What this gentleman has given to this great community is immeasurable.
All at axis mourn his passing and would like to send our love and condolences to his family and friends.
His passion for the Irish langauge, music, the arts, community, sport and people was unbound.
Although he had retired from his job as postman he still continued to supply the same connection through his voluntary work and passion.
A twinkle in the eye and a great idea was all that Fergus needed, he would gather the support around him, nothing could stop him.
His life touched so many.
He held so many people by the hand and helped them realise their potential.
Young and Old.
His great legacy is a thriving community, and people who will remember and carry him close.
The axis light will be dimmed this weekend to mark his passing.

Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.

Happy world theatre day. 🎭

It’s so important we get back into them as soon as it’s safe & when we do, We will need you! ❤️❤️❤️

If this was a normal year tonight would be opening night for our annual Pantomime at Axis Ballymun, for the first time since it began all those years ago our beloved theatre remains in darkness tonight, we just the faint echo of laughter from the past.

It’s a sad time for all involved however with ‘normality’ on the horizon, I am cautiously optimistic we will return with the brightest, happiest most spectacular production next year.

To everyone who has supported our pantomime for the past 2 decades, we thank you, we miss you and we cannot wait to see you again. 🙏🏼

Sadly, for the first time in 20 years Ballymun will go without a pantomime this January.

We all know why, but rest assured January 2022 will be the biggest come back show EVER. 🥳

Although we won’t see you this season we are delighted that the axis theatre stage won’t be dark for Christmas. We hope you can join Dame Stuffy virtually in December for a festive show featuring some of the best memories from panto’s past.❤️

Thank you for your amazing support over the past 2 decades. 🎄🎭

We love you all. X

Huge congratulations to Karl Dawson and all the brilliant cast and crew that brought Beauty and the Beast to the stage and played to packed out audiences for the last three weeks.
