At Ramor Arts Centre · Main Street, Virginia, Co. Cavan
Sinead Culbert built her following as one half of DirtBirds, the comedy duo she shares with Joanne McNally, whose online videos became a genuine Irish internet phenomenon. With “I’m No Wonder Woman” she steps out alone, and the result is a solo show that toured sold-out venues through 2025 - including a run at the Edinburgh Fringe - before extending into 2026. If you have seen her work with the DirtBirds and want more of that sharp, self-deprecating storytelling, this is worth the drive to Virginia.
The show works through a series of autobiographical themes: the particular hazards of growing up in 1980s Ireland, the gap between what people told you marriage would be like and what it actually is, the daily absurdities of parenting, and the quiet liberation of reaching a point where you stop trying to be everything to everyone. Culbert is an observational comic at heart - the material draws on lived experience rather than one-liners, and the tone balances honesty with warmth. Running time is approximately 80 minutes with no interval. The show contains adult themes and strong language, so it is pitched firmly at grown-ups. Ramor Arts Centre is an intimate 200-seat venue on Main Street Virginia, equipped with professional lighting and sound - a proper theatre space, not a back room, which suits a one-woman show well.
Virginia sits on the N3, roughly 50 minutes from Dublin and about 20 minutes south of Cavan town. The N3 is a well-lit dual carriageway for most of the Dublin stretch and narrows to a regional road near the town. If you are coming from the north or west, Cavan town is your junction. There is street parking on and around Main Street in Virginia, and the town is small enough that you will find a spot within a few minutes walk of the arts centre. Bus Eireann runs routes between Dublin and Cavan that stop in Virginia - check the current timetable for the last service back to Dublin if you are not driving.
Virginia is a pleasant Cavan market town on the shores of Lough Ramor, and September is a good time to catch it before the evenings close in. If you are making a full evening of it, there are pubs and restaurants in the town that are open late. There is more to see in Virginia and across Co. Cavan.
