?Eden? will be performed in Tech Amergin on March 7.
RAIN, Rocks 'n Reeks theatre company presents 'Eden' by Eugene O' Brien in in Tech Amergin Arts Centre, Waterville, on Sunday March 7 at 8pm.
This award-winning play realistically portrays the disintegration of the marriage between Billy (played by Paul Mekitarian) and Breda Farrell (played by Hazel McLynn. Billy, a doting father, spends his time drinking and enviously watching the lives of his single friends, while secretly lusting over a younger woman, Imelda Egan.
The long-suffering and frustrated Breda yearns for the romance lost from her marriage and pins all her hopes of reconciliation on one big night out "cos she's made the effort and lost the weight"!
Mac's late bar is the venue and we see their story unfold as both characters pursue their opposing goals with the inevitable outcome.
In its everyday simplicity, hilarious storytelling and colloquial language, Eden is guaranteed to appeal to both theatre and non-theatre goers alike. Tickets €15 (€12 conc.). Booking 066 9478956 techamergin@eircom.net
