Quotes & Reviews
Martin McDonagh: "The most wickedly funny, brilliantly abrasive young dramatist on either side of the Irish Sea... A born storyteller." - The New York Times "Wilde Irish's valiant cast...brave the word-hoard of the darkly humorous McDonagh, making a very funny evening of a treacherous piece of work." - Berkeley Daily Planet "Fortunately, the dialogue flows nicely in the Wilde Irish production helmed by artistic director Stephanie Courtney-Foss, and several of the actors being Irish themselves certainly doesn't hurt. The Berkeley City Club's small theater in the round is perfect for the cramped quarters of the village shop, and Jacinda's Johnston's threadbare costumes and Mary Pingree's cluttered set evoke the deprivation of the isolated island." - East Bay Express "Terrific characters such as (Howard Dillon), the town gossip; Slippy Helen (Bryn Elizabeth Harris), a scarily tough teen girl; and Babbybobby (Arthur Scappaticci), a tender but brutal fisherman, create a memorable piece of drama, loving and hard-edged at once." - Mill Valley Herald |
