From Westmeath, we now head north to Belfast and one of the city's most famous landmarks, the Grand Opera House.

Designed by the celebrated Victorian theater architect Frank Matcham, the theater opened its doors on the 23rd of December, 1895.

From the beginning, it was built to entertain on a grand scale, and over the years, its stage has played host to everything from Shakespeare and opera to pantomime, comedy, and musical theater.

But the Grand Opera House has had more than its fair share of drama away from the stage.

In 1991 and again in 1993, during the Troubles, the theater was badly damaged when bombs were detonated nearby.

But each time, the building was repaired, and in 1994, the venue hosted the BAFTA Awards, itself a defiant statement in the face of terrorism.

Uh, we are on tour all over March of 2027 and bits of April.

We are in the Grand Opera House the last week of March.

Uh, we are in Vicar Street in Dublin.
