"It's All Been Done Before" | A collection of 8 short plays in 1 show

Third Half Theatre, in partnership with The Junction, presents an evening of some of Dubai’s most celebrated original shorts. Multiple award-winning plays rub shoulders with plays that have travelled to Delhi and to LA, in addition to performing in Dubai at The Junction, DUCTAC, The Madinat, The Emirates Litfest and the Sikka Art Fair.

After an open audition, many new faces joined Third Half regulars and veterans. And after a whirlwind rehearsal schedule, here we are, this weekend (Sept 1, 2, 3, 7 pm) at The Junction, Alserkal Avenue, Dubai, bringing you what promises to be a roller-coaster ride of emotions.

Get set for an evening of fun, laughter, poignance, and reflection. Reconnect with the magic of the theatre with some of Dubai's best talent with almost forty team members collaborating to bring you an unforgettable night out.

We’ve been covered on TimeOut as one of the things to do this weekend and also featured on CurtainRaiser. Do also check out this wonderful video prepared by the team. The words were inspired by this production and the sound and music too has been prepared from scratch by team members.

The drive, the enthusiasm, the spirit really, of the entire team was beyond anything one could have imagined. It may sound hyperbolic, but we have genuinely been overwhelmed by the camaraderie and bonhomie of the team at the—at times chaotic but mostly exhilarating—process of bringing this production to you.

We hope you laugh, cry, think, wonder, and after the curtain falls, carry home a little bit of the theatre in your hearts.
