Reply To: Helix Theatre.

Because unlike the majority of Irish people I don’t have a car. I like to see the theatre or concerts as part of a well rounded night out with a city centre meal before hand and perhaps a drink afterwards also in the city centre. Being dependent on buses or taxis to and from Glasnevin kinda migates against this. Venues like the theatre in TCD, the Gaiety, the NCH or Abbey do not have this problem. Incidentally a good friend of mine who is an academic in DCU describes the project as a large “white elephant in waiting”.
