I saw this new play in Ballymun tonight. It was really good! I'm even thinking of going back again, but I don't think I will with this paper to write.
The two actors were really good. It was the first time in a while that I actually felt the electricity of the actors being present with each other. And they even managed to keep focused during the climax of the show when some audience member's mobile went off (playing the Mexican Hat Dance no less). This was after a few ladies left during the show and, of course, walked right past the front of the stage. ugh.
I almost bought the script and may still do so. It was a nice story of two folks who've made some mistakes and are trying to turn things around for themselves. The accents were really strong North Dublin accents. I guess I've heard it enough because I didn't have much trouble following it, but some of my companions had a rough time. I'm curious to see how it was written and how intelligible I would find it in written form.
