After the recent news that the iconic Parnell Street / O’Connell Street venue has reopened finally as a music venue, more good sense news today.
Known for its cinema roots, as it was was formerly the longest-running cinema in Dublin, the now seated venue will once again show the iconic Stop Making Sense Film, as it did for 20 weeks from 1985 to 1986.
The Talking Heads concert film is considered one of the best of all-time, and it will be showing once more at The Ambassador on Friday 1st November 2024, in its new 40th anniversary edition which was celebrated this year.
