Best known as an ancient funeral rite, the Irish wake is a celebration of transformation, of moving from one realm to another. Ushering in fabulous change – caterpillar to butterfly – the wake is a timeless reminder to live fully.
Experience WAKE, the electrifying Irish variety phenomenon that remixes traditions in an high-octane, heart-thumping celebration of life and connection.
Immerse yourself in our wild WAKE, where customs collide with club anthems, creating a euphoric soundtrack for a night filled with aerial artistry, tap, cabaret, slam poetry, pole-dancing and more.
Acclaimed Irish theatre company THISISPOPBABY invites you to witness an anthemic spectacle with the spirit of an epic trad session and the ecstatic energy of a stadium concert. After two sold-out, award-winning runs in Dublin, theatrical juggernaut WAKE makes its UK debut at the Peacock Theatre.
Expect joy, connection, release…and glitter.
This production is recommended for ages 12+.
