The  Giggler  Treatment at The Ark

The Ark
1 Dec 2024 – 12 Jan 2025

This festive season, following its hugely successful run in 2023, The Ark is proud to present The  Giggler  Treatment, a marvellous, mischievous new musical based on the novel by Roddy Doyle.

If adults are mean to children, they get The  Giggler  Treatment. It’s smelly. It’s squishy. And it sticks to your shoe. But sometimes, just sometimes, the  Gigglers make a mistake… Can Robbie, Kayla, Jimmy and Rover the dog come to Mr Mack’s rescue before the poo hits the shoe?

Written and composed by Fionn Foley (Tonic, Fierce Notions), this glorious adaptation of the much-loved novel is teeming with Dublin wit, memorable melodies and belly laughs for children and grown-ups alike.

Jam-packed with big songs and even bigger PONGS, it’s the funniest, cheekiest, silliest show in town!

There will be relaxed performances of The Giggler Treatment on Friday 13 December @ 10.15am & 12.15pm, Saturday 14 December @ 2pm and Monday 30 December @ 4pm. Relaxed performances are aimed at families or school groups with children who are on the autism spectrum or those who have sensory sensitivities and will be tailored for the comfort of your child. The sound will be at a lower volume and the lights will be dimmed rather than completely dark, we will warn you of any loud noises and we will have a special chill-out area where your child can relax.
