Strongly recommending @gatetheatredublin.bsky.social's production of THE PILLOWMAN. Lovely balance of cruelty and tenderness in the acting, design, direction - confirming my hunch that this is Martin McDonagh's best play.

Will be going again for definite.

I'm a couple of years late to it but am exceptionally impressed by Audrey Magee's the Colony. Feels thematically important but also so precise on the small details of ordinary lives.

Would agree with most of the @irishtimes.com review of @irishnationalopera.bsky.social's FLYING DUTCHMAN - Francis O'Connor's designs are stupendously good, the direction was carefully balanced between intimacy and excess, and two male leads were outstanding.

Theatre Ireland now sadly gone, as is ITM. I agree with Barry about the need for a replacement, not least because of the huge gap in the historical record since 2008. Future historians will know more about theatre in the 1810s and 1910s than they will about the 2010s - is that the legacy we want?

I got my copy of this new collection from Stinging Fly a few days ago - Every One Still Here by Liadan Ní Chuinn.

I didn't intend to read it immediately - but glanced at the first page and have been hooked ever since - it's just so surprising, engrossing & original
