Bergmann of Deadman’s Point

Friday, 11 September 2026

Mr Bergmann of Deadman’s Point is a new play based on the extraordinary true story of Ireland’s most famous unidentified man, the so-called Peter Bergmann. He spent three days in Sligo town mysteriously erasing his identity and was later found on a lonely shoreline at Rosses Point. It is told through the eyes of an embalmer who is in a race against time to cement his own legacy. A spellbinding and comic tale exploring legacy, reputation and what it is to live close to death. One of the great modern mysteries, brought to you by the multi award-winning Nth Degree Productions.
