The Nualas were an Irish cabaret trio known for performing spoof songs.[1][2] The group — with characters named Nuala, Nuala and Nuala—[3][4] was founded by Anne Gildea, Sue Collins and Tara Flynn in 1995. Flynn was replaced at several points since 2002 by Susanna de Wrixon,[5][6] Karen Egan,[7][8] Maria Tecce,[9][10] and Josephine O'Reilly.[1][11] Performing predominantly in the UK and Ireland, including the Edinburgh Fringe in 2001 and 2014,[12] they also performed in New York and The Melbourne International Comedy Festival Gala.[1][13][14] The group last performed in 2018.[10]
In 1998, they produced a series for BBC Radio 4 featuring Paul Tylak[8][15] and a Christmas special.[6]
In 2015, they created a song, Yes 2 Love, promoting a 'yes' vote in the Irish marriage equality referendum.[16]
