A firecracker and a protector | DANCING AT LUGHNASA | Gate Theatre 2024 

Just back from seeing the play . I absolutely loved it . Every time I see this play I see something new . Friel is obviously an excellent playwright. I would have to say that this is probably the best thing that have seen this year . The cast are amazing . The relationships that develops between the characters is mesmerizing. There is a bit of a “Mundy” in us all. You ask yourself which one of them represents who i am in the family ?And when they dance it is absolutely hypnotizing . It represents the misery , longing , frustration , the need to let go. The choreography that must have gone into that sequence alone, is amazing . I could honestly have sat for another hour . A must for anyone who loves theatre . If you are lucky enough to get a ticket you will definitely say to yourself “ I am coming back and I know …. Would love to see it” Keep up the good work .
