Tony and Sheila are watching television. Their children are grown and their grandchildren are invading their lives. They haven’t had sex forever and all that’s on the television is sex. Oisín Flores Sweeney’s first play is a hilarious piece of theatre that encompasses the way many Irish couples live today. Produced by Blood in the Alley Theatre Company the play is directed by Geoff Gould. It stars Irish Times Theatre Award nominee Seamus O’Rourke (Lakelands), an established actor and playwright and Joan Sheehy, actor and director whose screen credits include The Field, The Boxer, Father Ted and most recently, An Cailín Ciúin.
“This wonderful little comedy is a perfect match of humour and heart, and definitely not just for empty-nesters” – ★★★★ David Keane, The Reviews Hub.
