Wonderfully written, cast perfectly, and kept me engaged throughout the entire play.... full review

Really well written and acted. Draws you in with humor and charm and when it gets serious, you're very invested. Highly recommend.... full review

A confidently written and performed show, brimming with wit and rage. The actors all give fully realized and authentic performances, wearing the rich verbosity of the script like a glove.

If Rory gets extended, treat yourself and get transported to 1970's Ireland - with whiskey in hand.... full review
