FROM THE STREETS OF DUBLIN, THE SENSATIONAL ROCK-THEATRE PRODUCTION

LIVE, DANGEROUS AND HUGELY ENTERTAINING.



Fatdan Productions, AMA Music Agency & Zero 3 are thrilled to announce the upcoming rock theatre production of MOONLIGHT: THE PHILIP LYNOTT ENIGMA, at the Gleneagles Arena, Killarney, on October 24TH, 2025. Tickets are on sale now from Ticketmaster and the venue. 
It’s time to go beyond the headlines.  Moonlight tells a deeper story of an Irish rock music icon — exploring Philip Lynott’s formative years, his struggles, and his legacy and inspiration to musicians around the world, honouring him in the pantheon of great Irish poets.
Peter M. Smith leads an incredible cast bringing “Philip Lynott” to life like never before, supported by acclaimed local Kerry actor Padraic O’Loingsigh in the role of “Brendan Behan”.  International singing star Brian Kennedy joins the cast as “Oscar Wilde”, and Thin Lizzy co‑founder/guitarist Eric Bell plays himself bringing unbeatable authenticity to the production.  A full live band under the direction of Limerick’s Larry Hogan blast out the Thin Lizzy anthems and new original tracks in a high-energy unforgettable show that will have you on your feet, laughing, crying and singing as we tell a unique story that needs to be told.
