‘a captivating one-man show brought to life by Jones’ vivid performance that is entertaining.. Irish Times

A thrilling production from acclaimed playwright Eugene O’Brien, Falling To Earth: My Summer With Bowie is an evocative and deeply personal story of music, longing, and self-discovery. Brought to life by the powerhouse performance of Stephen Jones (Northern Lights, Into The Badlands, Red Rock, Love/Hate, Ripper Street), this gripping one-man show takes audiences on an unforgettable journey through a summer that changed everything.

Scut Kelly feels like an alien in his hometown. Single, loveless and carer to a Dad who never cared much for him.  His only solace, the music of Ziggy/The Thin White Duke/The Man Who Fell To Earth and his Spiders From Mars. Now he is about to have the most extraordinary summer of his life where fantasy becomes reality… Fate conspires to grant him face to face time with his idol, the living legend.  Can Scut handle this new planet and all its possibilities or will he fall to earth with a bang?
