The Walworth Farce - Everyman Palace

Judes

Have any of you seen this play yet, it's new by Enda Walsh. All I can say is "OMIGOD" - it will knock the socks off you - go into the Everyman Palace Website and read it up, then get your ticket - it's only on until Sat night. It's comical, it's very, very dark, it's fast - the lead character scared the hell out of me - and I think he deserves the highest acclamation, as does the rest of the cast. Everyone left the theatre going "WOW". I am dying to tell you more but that would ruin it for you. Trust me - it's so worth going to. J

(I put this into Cork section - but as the production is touring - if it plays at a town near you - get your ticket!).

Have to agree Judes. Saw it in the Helix, Dublin. Incredible. Brilliant. Hilarious. Horrifying ? I didn't know what to think coming out. If I had the time I'd probably go and see it a 2nd time.
Most original Irish play I've seen in years, & I'd seen a clip of it on TV & thought it looked crap. Thank God I went. I'm not sure whether you're better off not knowing anything about it before you go, or knowing a little.

I think you're right - "knowing a little" would help. A few people in Cork were a bit confused on opening night - I think you need to be prepared for the character changes etc. as it's all so fast. But I tell you, if a pin had dropped in the auditorium that night, you'd have heard it. (well maybe not if it was shouting scene) but you know what I mean. Glad you enjoyed it too! J
