Go to www.rte.ie/toyshowthemusical for ticketing information and to purchase. Ticketsolve are RTÉ’s ticketing partners for the show. The Late Late Toy Show has become a singular phenomenon in modern Irish culture. Much more than a television show, the night itself heralds the official ‘start of Christmas’ across Ireland when generations watch together for a truly special celebration of children, great toys and much more! This new Irish musical is created and produced by Late Late Show producers Jane Murphy and Katherine Drohan. “We are thrilled to honour the Toy Show and all of the joy and magic that it inspires across Ireland every year with this new creation, telling the story of one little family and their adventures on Toy Show night, through the eyes of a child. Speaking on the Late Late Show on Friday night, presenter Ryan Tubridy joked that while he’s a dab hand at dancing and singing, he’s happy to leave it to the theatre actors. “Now I know what you’re thinking!” Ryan quipped. “Ryan…the Toy Man… you’re a fine dancer! And yes, it’s true, I can hold a tune too. But I’m not in it!! I will be using my skills to great effect on the Late Late Toy Show, the regular one, on the TV in November, which will be bigger and better than ever before. So, how about we leave the theatre stage to the theatre actors! And wishing the very best of luck to all of the brilliant team involved there.” RTÉ is delighted to have assembled a highly talented and experienced team of creative artists from the world of theatre. Director Séimí Campbell, whose recent work includes Gary Barlow’s “A Different Stage” and Jason Robert Brown’s “Songs For A New World” at The London Palladium is Associate Director to Rufus Norris on “Hex”, at the National Theatre in London. Speaking about Toy Show The Musical he said, “It’s an honour to come back home to direct a new, original musical that celebrates the incredible tradition of the Toy Show; the magic of childhood, resilience of family and the power and significance of play”. Lisa Tierney-Keogh is an award-winning playwright whose work has been produced internationally and at home. Her most recent play, “This Beautiful Village”, commissioned by the Abbey Theatre in Dublin, was awarded Best New Play at the Irish Times Theatre Awards in 2020. Speaking about RTE’s new project Lisa said, “I’m absolutely thrilled to be writing Toy Show The Musical, a celebration of the spirit and heart of this beloved Irish phenomenon” Grammy nominated composer and performer RuthAnne Cunningham is the multi-talented songwriter for the show. A very special version of her lead song from Toy Show The Musical, entitled “All The Same” was debuted on last night’s Late Late Show in a for-one-night-only performance which featured guest appearances from Toy Show’s Saoirse Ruane alongside a host of other Toy Show stars. RuthAnne said “When I was approached by RTÉ to compose the music for the Toy Show The Musical, they sent me the story and I immediately thought of this song I had written with Jennifer Hudson And Busbee. I felt it was special with a relatable lyric that fitted in with the story perfectly, so I sent it over to the producers and they loved it instantly and wanted it to be a part of this show. It’s an important lyric for children of all ages to remember that everyone in life is often feeling a lot of the same things, wanting the same things and going through more than we realise on the surface. As humans we really are all the same and the song aims to remind everyone to unite and support each other, be kind to each other and love each other.” The track is available now on all streaming services. Chair of the RTÉ Board, Moya Doherty said “Toy Show The Musical is such an exciting and ambitious creative departure for RTÉ. Building a new Irish original musical on the values and spirit of the Toy Show promises to offer theatre audiences something unique and magical this Christmas. That RTÉ has managed to assemble such a stellar team of musical and theatrical talent to develop this new show is a tribute to the enduring magic of the Toy Show and all who have contributed to making what it has become in our culture.” Dee Forbes, Director General, RTÉ said “We have been quietly working on Toy Show The Musical for quite a while and I am delighted that we are now in position to launch it. We said a number of years ago that live events were going to be a key part of RTÉ’s future but we had to delay our plans due to the pandemic. Just like The Late Late Toy Show itself, so much care and thought is going into this musical. While it will be a very different to the TV show, at its heart it’s a story about family, tradition and how the magic of the Toy Show brings the whole world together each year for one truly amazing night.

Tá an Late Late Toy Show anois ina fheiniméan uatha i gcultúr nua-aimseartha na hÉireann. I bhfad níos mó ná seó teilifíse, cuireann an oíche féin ‘tús na Nollag’ oifigiúil ar fud na hÉireann ar fáil nuair a bhíonn na glúnta ag faire le chéile chun ceiliúradh fíor-speisialta a dhéanamh ar pháistí, bréagáin iontacha agus go leor eile! Is iad na léiritheoirí Late Late Show Jane Murphy agus Katherine Drohan a chruthaigh agus a léirigh an ceol nua Éireannach seo. “Tá lúcháir orainn ómós a thabhairt don Toy Show agus don áthas agus don draíocht ar fad a spreagann sé ar fud na hÉireann gach bliain leis an gcruthú nua seo, ag insint scéal teaghlaigh bhig amháin agus a n-eachtraí oíche Toy Show, trí shúile linbh.” Ag labhairt dó ar an Late Late Show oíche Dé hAoine, rinne an láithreoir Ryan Tubridy magadh cé gur lámh dab é ag damhsa agus ag canadh, tá sé sásta é a fhágáil faoi aisteoirí na hamharclainne. “Anois tá a fhios agam cad atá tú ag smaoineamh! Ó Riain… fear na m Toy… is rinceoir breá thú! Agus sea, tá sé fíor, is féidir liom fonn a shealbhú freisin. Ach níl mé ann !! Beidh mé ag baint úsáide as mo chuid scileanna go mór ar an Late Late Toy Show, an ceann rialta, ar an teilifís i mí na Samhna, a bheidh níos mó agus níos fearr ná riamh. Mar sin, cad faoi fágaimid stáitse na hamharclainne d’aisteoirí na hamharclainne! Agus gach rath a ghuí ar an bhfoireann iontach ar fad atá i gceist ansin.” Tá ríméad ar RTÉ foireann an-chumasach d’ealaíontóirí cruthaitheacha ó shaol na hamharclannaíochta a chur le chéile. Tá an stiúrthóir Séimí Campbell, a bhfuil “A Different Stage” le Gary Barlow ina chuid oibre le déanaí agus “Songs For A New World” le Jason Robert Brown ag The London Palladium ina Stiúrthóir Comhlach ar Rufus Norris ar “Hex”, san Amharclann Náisiúnta i Londain. Ag labhairt dó faoi Toy Show The Musical dúirt sé, “Is mór an onóir dom teacht ar ais sa bhaile chun ceol nua bunaidh a stiúradh a cheiliúrann traidisiún dochreidte an Toy Show; draíocht na hóige, teacht aniar an teaghlaigh agus cumhacht agus suntas an tsúgartha”. Is drámadóir í Lisa Tierney-Keogh a bhfuil gradaim buaite aici agus a bhfuil a saothar léirithe go hidirnáisiúnta agus sa bhaile. Bronnadh an Dráma Nua is Fearr ag Gradaim Amharclannaíochta an Irish Times in 2020 ar an dráma is déanaí uaithi, “This Beautiful Village”, a choimisiúnaigh Amharclann na Mainistreach i mBaile Átha Cliath. Ag labhairt di faoi thionscadal nua RTÉ, dúirt Lisa, “Tá lúcháir mhór orm a bheith ag scríobh Toy Show The Musical, ceiliúradh ar spiorad agus ar chroí an fheiniméin ghalánta Seo na hÉireann” Is é RuthAnne Cunningham, cumadóir agus taibheoir ainmnithe Grammy, an scríbhneoir amhrán ilchumasach don seó. Cuireadh tús le leagan an-speisialta dá príomhamhrán ó Toy Show The Musical, dar teideal “All The Same” ar Late Late Show aréir i léiriú ar feadh oíche amháin ina raibh aoi-láithrithe ó Saoirse Ruane le Toy Show in éineacht le go leor réaltaí eile Toy Show. Dúirt RuthAnne “Nuair a chuaigh RTÉ i dteagmháil liom chun an ceol a chumadh don Toy Show The Musical, chuir siad an scéal chugam agus smaoinigh mé láithreach ar an amhrán seo a scríobh mé le Jennifer Hudson And Busbee. Bhraith mé go raibh sé speisialta le liric inathraithe a d’fheistigh isteach leis an scéal go foirfe, mar sin chuir mé chuig na léiritheoirí é agus bhí grá acu dó láithreach agus theastaigh uaim go mbeadh sé mar chuid den seó seo. Is liric thábhachtach é do pháistí de gach aois cuimhneamh gur minic a bhíonn gach duine sa saol ag mothú a lán de na rudaí céanna, ag iarraidh na rudaí céanna agus ag dul trí níos mó ná mar a thuigimid ar an dromchla. Mar dhaoine táimid go léir mar an gcéanna agus tá sé mar aidhm ag an amhrán a mheabhrú do gach duine aontú agus tacaíocht a thabhairt dá chéile, a bheith cineálta lena chéile agus grá a thabhairt dá chéile. Tá an rian ar fáil anois ar gach seirbhís sruthú.” Dúirt Cathaoirleach Bhord RTÉ, Moya Doherty, “Toy Show Is imeacht cruthaitheach chomh corraitheach agus chomh huaillmhianach é an Ceol do RTÉ. Trí bhuncheol nua Éireannach a thógáil ar luachanna agus ar spiorad an Toy Show, gealltar rud uathúil agus draíochtúil a thairiscint do lucht féachana amharclainne an Nollaig seo. Gur éirigh le RTÉ foireann chomh stellar de thallann ceoil agus amharclainne a chur le chéile chun an seó nua seo a fhorbairt, is ómós é do dhraíocht mharthanach an Toy Show agus do gach duine a chuidigh leis an méid atá tagtha chun cinn inár gcultúr a dhéanamh.” Dúirt Dee Forbes, Ard-Stiúrthóir RTÉ, “Táimid ag obair go ciúin ar Toy Show The Musical le tamall maith agus tá lúcháir orm go bhfuilimid in ann é a sheoladh anois. Dúirt muid roinnt blianta ó shin go raibh imeachtaí beo ag dul a bheith ina gcuid lárnach de thodhchaí RTÉ ach b’éigean dúinn moill a chur ar ár bpleananna mar gheall ar an bpaindéim. Díreach cosúil le The Late Late Toy Show féin, tá an oiread sin cúraim agus smaoinimh ag dul isteach sa cheol seo. Cé go mbeidh sé an-difriúil leis an seó teilifíse, ag a chroílár is scéal é faoin teaghlach, faoin traidisiún agus faoin gcaoi a dtugann draíocht an Toy Show an domhan ar fad le chéile gach bliain ar feadh oíche fíor-iontach amháin.” Tuilleadh Eolais: Inrochtaineacht: Ag teacht leis an Toy Show, beidh Toy Show the Musical chomh hinrochtana agus is féidir do lucht féachana agus mar sin beidh roinnt léirithe sínithe AGL agus taibhiú cairdiúil céadfach ann. Tá spásanna tiomnaithe do chathaoireacha rothaí ag gach seó. Ticéid: Ticéid ar phraghas €25- ar díol ón Aoine 19 Bealtaine 2022 ag 10am ó Ticketsolve.
