Everyman director picks top 3 ‘must see’

The outgoing artistic director of Cork’s Everyman Palace picked his top three choices for this season as he launched the theatre’s Spring programme.

Number One was Der Vampyr which will see the MacCurtain St venue transformed into a vampire’s pit later this year.

Michael Barker-Caven is leaving the Everyman to become a freelance director and this is one of his first shows. He described Der Vampyr as an “extraordinary piece of romantic opera”.
