Geraldine Hughes has launched the final homecoming of her critically acclaimed show Belfast Blues for one week only this August at the Lyric Theatre.
Having just wrapped a year on Broadway in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Belfast actress Geraldine Hughes is coming to the Lyric Theatre with her smash hit one woman show Belfast Blues!
Belfast Blues is one ‘wee girls’ story about family, war, Jesus, and Hollywood. Geraldine Hughes’ one-woman show is a tapestry of stories told from Hughes’ perspective as a little girl coming of age in the war-torn Belfast of the 1980s.
After award-winning runs in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and London, the play is returning to her home city of Belfast for 6 nights only. Belfast Blues is directed by Carol Kane, and is written and performed by Geraldine Hughes.
Reviews:

“Takes your breath away” -Chicago Sun Times
Geraldine Hughes on the show:
“There’s no audience better than a Belfast audience! It’s such a privilege to play at the Lyric again, and thanks to Brassneck, I am doing just that. I’m so excited to share the story of Belfast Blues with a new generation of theatre goers and eager to re tell it to all those who are returning! The support from home is truly incomparable!”
