Andrews Lane Theatre

The Andrews Lane Theatre, later the ALT niteclub, was situated on St. Andrew's Lane, near Dame Street, Dublin. It had two performance areas; an auditorium with 220 seats, and an 80-seat studio. The venue became a niteclub before it became disused, and demolished, and replaced with a hotel.

Establishment
The venue was established by private interests from the business and arts world without state funding. Stage actress Maureen Potter performed the opening ceremoney on 31 August 1989.

Productions
New productions by Irish playwrights in the venue included:
 * 'A Country in Our Heads' - Dolores Walshe
 * Aceldama - Jimmy Murphy
 * An tUisceadán - Nuala Nic Con Iomaire
 * Bé Carna - Deirdre Kinahan
 * Bimbo - Rosy Barnes
 * Buffalo Bill Has Gone To Alaska - Colin Teevan
 * Buille an Phíce - Brian Ó Riagáin

Demise
The closure of the space as a theatre was announced in 2007. It became a niteclub and concert venue for the next decade. It was then demolished and replaced with a hotel, including a restaurant "ALT" named after the theatre.
