Motorcycles rides into town in a vivid new stage adaptation by Audrey Devereux, based on Melissa Holbrook Pierson’s acclaimed memoir. It’s a high‑energy, human story about the thrill of motorcycling and the people who live for it—spotlighting the often‑untold history of women riders. Produced and presented by The New Theatre (Dublin), directed by Anthony Fox, and starring Jessy Danner and Ruairí Nicholl.
What to expect
Take a fast, reflective trip through bike culture—past and present—where the defiant ones push limits on the track and carry that same courage into everyday life. Interwoven with Pierson’s personal journey, this is a show for lifelong riders and the motorcycle‑curious alike: clear‑eyed, celebratory, and full of heart.
