The Dead, 1904

You are cordially invited to step into the heart of Edwardian Ireland for an evening at the Morkans’ annual holiday party. Right on Fifth Avenue, inside a Gilded Age mansion, you’ll join the characters of James Joyce’s beloved story, The Dead, 1904, in a richly immersive and unique theatrical experience. Set in Dublin, The Dead, 1904 tells the story of a Christmastime gathering hosted by sisters Kate and Julia Morkan. Over an authentic 20th century feast, you’ll meet their friends—a celebrated tenor, a wayward alcoholic, and married couple Gabriel and Gretta Conroy—as they laugh, bicker, and ponder the nature of life and death.
