Broadway Meets Dublin – The Hilarious Eureka Day at The Gate Theatre
Get ready for a “chaotically hilarious” night out as the Broadway smash-hit Eureka Day makes its highly anticipated Irish premiere at Dublin’s Gate Theatre. Directed by the “buzzy” Roy Alexander Weise, this smart comedy dives deep into the heart of a progressive private school in Berkeley, California, where “liberal values and inclusion reign supreme.” What begins as a polite discussion over scones and community quickly spirals into an “uproarious” battle of wits when a mumps outbreak forces the school board to confront their own contradictions. It’s the perfect satire for our “age of disagreement”—thought-provoking, timely, and undeniably funny.

EUREKA DAY: A smart Broadway smash-hit comedy about good intentions, bad timing, and how contagious community really is…
ABOUT:
High up in the hills of Berkeley, California, is Eureka Day; an independent, alternative school where liberal values and inclusion reign supreme. Every child matters and is welcome in this progressive paradise. That is, until a health scare shakes the parents and community to its core.
As the executive board attempt to navigate the crisis, we see that mumps might not be the only thing that’s contagious…
‘The Gate Theatre’s latest in an excellent sequence of American imports… staged by the buzzy London director Roy Alexander Weise’
