We opened in the Town Hall Studio last night with The World's Wife, our stage adaptation of the poetry book by Carol Ann Duffy. We've brought this show to venues from Kiltimagh to Electric Picnic and we're still finding new approaches, nuances and balances. Aside from a few technical hitches (who left that knickers on the stage?!) one costume malfunction (a snug dress becoming snugger - ahem!) and some line flubs (two bells called Josephine, anyone?) the show went well before a good house. What more can an actress ask for?
And we do it all again tonight, and every night till Saturday.
'A three woman show of wittily revisionist monologues, the production has it all: humour, horror and pathos thanks to an exuberant ensemble cast who don't miss any of Duffy's deft beats...This true ensemble's use of space, props and dramatic timing (is) exceptional' 5 Stars - Metro
