Passionfruit

Picture a winter’s night in rainy Athlone. You make your way to 9 Northgate St.
And you step inside the cosy atmosphere of the Passionfruit Theatre. You purchase your ticket and are shown to your seat by a smiling young person who takes your wet coat, and is glad you could make it. Then the old building seems to hold its breath as the stage lights go up, and for the next two hours you’re transported to another world. The old building lives again, and so do you…That’s what we’re offering!


Joe Ducke, Passionfruit Theatre Founder
1950-2009
Rest in Peace Joe
