It's 11 o'clock in the morning in a council flat on the Walworth Road in London. In two hours' time, as is normal, three Irish men will have consumed six cans of Harp, fifteen crackers with spreadable cheese, ten pink biscuit wafers and one oven-cooked chicken with a strange blue sauce. In two hours' time, as is normal, five people will have been killed.
Edna Walsh's tender and visceral play was commissioned and first performed by Druid in 2006 and at the Traverse Theatre during the 2007 Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
It's 11 o'clock in the morning in a council flat in south London. In two hours' time, as is normal, three Irishmen will have consumed six cans of Harp, fifteen crackers with spreadable cheese, ten pink biscuit wafers and one oven-cooked chicken in a strange blue sauce. Also in two hours' time, as is normal, five people will have been killed.
If there is a bleaker, funnier or more desperate play in Edinburgh this year, Ill eat my hat.Guardian
A brilliant new play by the author of Disco Pigs and this years winner of the Edinburgh First Fringe Award for Outstanding New Writing.
Stunning play from the consistently original author of "Disco Pigs."
