NO WOMAN IS AN ISLAND – COMING TO LISTOWEL!

No Woman is an Island is coming to St John’s Arts Centre, Listowel, for it's first time ever, on Friday 27th November!

Described by The Irish Times as “Fascinating… eloquent… vivid… elegiac. Not to be missed.”

Part stand-up, part lecture and part confessional, No Woman is an Island is a witty, moving and thought-provoking exploration of womanhood, solitude, creativity and the endless pursuit of a little time alone.

Blending the words of great female thinkers with personal stories, intimate reflections and plenty of humour, this critically acclaimed show premiered at Dublin Theatre Festival 2023 and is now touring Ireland, with a place in the Traverse's Winter Programme 2026.

St John’s Arts Centre, Listowel
Friday 27th November 2026
12pm (Baby-Friendly) & 8pm (Evening Show)
