David Ireland
Ulster American
★★★★☆ Hard Hitting:
Trailing clouds of glory from 2018, David Ireland’s Ulster American has returned to the Traverse with a bang. If it is not quite as good as some have said, it is still impressive – and certainly is impressively nasty.
Ulster American Returns
Eleven dates for Traverse’s #EdFringe hit:
The Traverse Theatre company production of Ulster American by David Ireland, a sell-out and critical hit of #EdFringe 2018, is to return for a strictly limited run in Spring 2019.
Cyprus Avenue
★★★★☆ Brutal:
Brutal to a point which is almost beyond comprehension, the EUTC production of Cyprus Avenue, at the Bedlam to Saturday, fools with laughter before stunning you to silence.
Kill Johnny Glendenning
✭✭✭✩✩ Blood with no guts
Vigorous and energetic, the Lyceum’s world premiere of Kill Johnny Glendenning provides lashings of blood and humour in a production which is well performed and directed, but in the end is less than the sum of its parts.
Review – Most Favoured
Satisfaction is not always a reflection of the absolute quality of what is on offer, as this constantly surprising Play Pie and a Pint offering by David Ireland demonstrates most effectively.
