The current Smock Alley Theatre (Irish: Amharclann Scabhat Smock)^[1] is a 21st-century theatre in Dublin, converted from a 19th-century church building, incorporating structural material from an 18th-century theatre building, and built on the site of the 17th century Theatre Royal, Dublin. The present theatre was opened in 2012, after a €3.5 million investment.^[2]
