REVIEWS: WHAT THE CRITICS SAID

Hailed by the New York Times as the ‘most ambitious American play of our time’, Tony Kushner’s epic work explores aspects of American social and political life against the backdrop of the AIDS outbreak in the 1980s.

As relationships are laid bare, this compelling drama is played out in scenes depicting both reality and fantasy while the characters struggle to survive in a world which comes crashing down around them.

Silken Thomas are a group at the cutting edge of amateur theatre. Best known for thought provoking plays such as Bent, Trainspotting, The Normal Heart (2007 All Ireland & Ulster Final Winners), Equus and of course The History Boys (2010 All Ireland & Ulster Final Winners).

Advisory Warning: This show contains nudity and adult content.

Tickets €20 / €18
