Eva O’Connor’s award-winning play For Dolores will make its London debut at King’s Head Theatre as part of their Spring 2027 season.
Mo (the Scottish one) and Réaltín (the Irish one) partied, played and blazed their way through the student dream in this ‘remarkable….brilliant…..hilarious’ (Irish Times) play. A couple of years later, they meet to navigate what Réaltín calls the messy landscape of their lives, which Mo thinks sounds very dramatic!
For Dolores is ‘a remarkable piece of theatre’ (Broadway World) and ‘a whip-smart production’ (Scotsman) about friendship, motherhood and coming to terms with your worst mistakes. How far will they go for love in this ‘gloriously dysfunctional thrill ride’ (Herald).
For Dolores enjoyed sold out runs in Ireland and at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2026, receiving rave reviews from audiences and critics alike.
Fishamble’s terrific production will run from 31st March to 17th April 2027, and tickets are on sale now on the King’s Head Theatre website.
