Don't Tell Dad About Diana

A man and woman relax on the floor surrounded by random objects, looking at each other's eyes.

Dublin, 1997. Two friends prepare to compete for the crown of Alternative Miss Ireland with their Princess Diana drag act, under the noses of their hardline nationalist families. As they race through the city towards competition night, Diana’s death sparks the unravelling of their secret, their friendship and their plans to leave Ireland.  A high-energy, fast-paced two-hander packed with comedy, courage, and coming-of-age chaos. 

After a month-long Edinburgh Fringe run, Don’t Tell Dad About Diana comes home to Dublin Fringe Festival, promising to be one of the most exciting comedy debuts of the festival.
