Nip & Tuck - Wednesday, 25th February 2026 (20:00)
After standing ovations at its debut and rave reviews at the Millennium Forum, the outrageous new comedy NIP & TUCK is coming to a theatre near you!
Set in the fictional town of Ballybigger, the story follows Barbara, who checks in for what should be a simple cosmetic procedure. Instead, she’s swept into a whirlwind of surgical slip-ups, outrageous mix-ups, and a cast of doctors and nurses who are anything but qualified! Add her sharp-tongued best friend Mary Oxter, her sister Majella—determined to try the newest (and strangest) high-tech treatment—and an over-the-top operation scene like no other, and Ballybigger’s clinic is already in chaos.
But just when things couldn’t get any crazier… a mad man on the loose arrives, desperate for a nip and tuck of his own to disguise himself and slip out of the country. Will Barbara survive the madness? Will Majella ever get her “out-of-this-world” procedure? And can anyone stop the runaway mayhem before the stitches come undone?
This over-18s adult comedy is bursting with cheeky humour, wild antics, and all the “stitching up” you’ll need—because you’ll be laughing until your sides split!
Starring entertainer Gary Gamble and a stellar cast of comedy actors and actresses, NIP & TUCK promises an evening of outrageous fun that will leave you in stitches.
Laugh them off before we cut them off!
