Returning to The Pavilion after two previous sellout runs!
The Irish play described by audiences as the finest, funniest, most heart-breaking piece of theatre they’ve ever seen.
From London's West End where every performance received a huge standing ovation! The smash hit of last year’s Edinburgh fringe!
The incredible story of middle-aged homeless alcoholic, Myra McLaughlin living rough on the streets of Dublin. As she begs from passers-by at her regular spot by Ha’penny Bridge, Myra recreates her rollercoaster backstory. Playing all the larger-than-life Dublin characters (male and female), acting out all the hilarious/tragic/heart breaking events in her life that have taken her to this pitiful state.
Seen by over 150,000 theatregoers in Ireland, UK, USA and Canada. You’ll laugh with Myra. You’ll cry with Myra. What you’ll never do is forget Myra.
“Just come out of this wonderful play. Completely immersed. Times you could hear a pin drop. Loud laughter in other parts. Been attending theatre for 30 years and adore it. But never seen anything to compare on an emotional scale to this.”
5***** LYNDSEY STODDART, AUDIENCE.
“Five stars are not enough to do it justice! Hosannas are what Hewitt-Twamley and Derry playwright Brian Foster deserve for this soul-searing drama about those we pass by every day.”
5***** SCOTTISH DAILY MAIL.
“Never has a live performance left me speechless. 90 minutes of sheer brilliance. Laughter and tears a lot of so remember to take a box of tissues.”
5***** GRACE GALLAGHER, AUDIENCE.
