25 Nov-15 Jan 2004. It is Christmas Eve. Irene and Arthur await the arrival - not of Santa Claus - but of Declan, the self-made millionaire from New Zealand. If everything goes well, Arthur's future is secure. But there is a danger that old scores could now be settled and old jealousies resurrected - and celebration could turn to consternation as all the old secrets are unwrapped like unwanted Christmas presents. Running till mid-January at the Gate Theatre, written by Bernard Farrell, directed by Alan Stanford and starring Stephen Brennan, Lynn Cahill, Bill Golding, Mark O'Regan, Geraldine Plunkett and Kathryn Sumner, Many Happy Returns is a Christmas-tinged yarn set to enthral Dublins theatre-goers throughout the festive season. Matinees on 11 Sat, 18 & 22 December at 15.00.?More info: Tel. +353-18744045,
