Bum Notes
Your wish is our command,
Not a word nor note is planned.
A brand new musical appearing sans recital
And all we need from you is … the title!
After two sell out runs at the Dublin Fringe Festival, multiple appearances at Dublin Alt Comedy, a slot in the Edinburgh Improv Festival, and a sold out show at the Royal Irish Academy of Music, Bum Notes are delighted to be back at where it all began, the wonderful Smock Alley theatre, for a truly one night only experience. This musical has not been seen before, it will not be seen again. Your only chance to catch (and possibly name) it is this November the 5th.

ABOUT THE COMPANY
Bum Notes is a tightly-knit improvised musical troupe based in Dublin that have been performing sell-out shows roughly once a month since the start of 2024. We debuted at the Scene + Heard festival of new work, and have performed at the Dublin Fringe Festival (twice), the Edinburgh Improv Festival, and even Electric Picnic. Our most frequented venue is the wonderful Smock Alley Theatre, but we’ve also trod the boards of The Sugar Club, and even put on Ireland’s biggest ever homegrown fully-improvised show to a sold out Royal Irish Academy of Music.
