What a shot of sheer joy Riot is. Part comedy, aerial show, political pulpit, circus… and a mankini. Full of heart, energy and craft. Ends tomorrow - well done @pantibliss.bsky.social @thisispopbaby.bsky.social @emmetkirwan.bsky.social Lords of Strut, Omar Cortes Gonzalez, The Sirens, Up & Over It.

Saw ‘Riot’ last night at Vicar Street. Wildly entertaining, a circus for grownups! Specifically Irish too. Highly irreverent, hugely relevant to our times. @pantibliss.bsky.social & @emmetkirwan.bsky.social on top form. Plus AMAZING sean nós dancers! @thisispopbaby.bsky.social

Some of my images for the incredible show RIOT, made in collaboration with Niall Sweeney for @thisispopbaby.bsky.social. Extra tickets have just been released for the last two shows in Vicar Street, tonight and tomorrow - grab them if you can!

Tonight I’ve been to #RIOTtheSHOW at Vicar Street by @thisispopbaby.bsky.social with an amazing team and @pantibliss.bsky.social behind it. Created & directed by Jennifer Jennings and @phillymcmahon.bsky.social. It was a blast, a must! If there’re any tickets left for tomorrow, don’t think twice 🪩

Riot last night was fantastic. Imagine pool noodle Jesus doing Cirque du Soleil to an 80’s soundtrack interrupted occasionally by a tracksuit top buzzed up Poet, @emmetkirwan.bsky.social and all led brilliantly by incoming Irish president @pantibliss.bsky.social @thisispopbaby.bsky.social
