Irish premier of "Bones" is attracting rave reviews
So far, the reviews for this debut performance have been nothing short of sensational. (The show is on the Samuel Beckett Theatre in Trinity College Dublin and must finish this Saturday).
“Nobody
should miss this flawless and mesmerising production which does full
justice to Kay Adshead’s intelligent and surprisingly humorous play…
Susan Fitzgerald is outstanding as Jennifer… Evelyn Duah gives a fantastic, energetic performance…
The singing and beautifully choreographed mimes of the chorus add countless dimensions to the story…
What makes ‘Bones’ unforgettable is the way in which its combination of
music, mood and poetic dialogue seems to transport you to Africa”
(The Irish Independent)
“Calypso has given ‘Bones’ its Irish premiers and it’s little short of magnificent.”
(The Sunday Independent)
“****A subtle and unusual piece of theatre…
The interaction between Susan Fitzgerald and Evelyn Duah is first class…”
(The Mail on Sunday)
“There is glorious, magnificent music…
Bairbre Ni Chaoimh exploits the script’s potential for striking
tableaux, beautifully lit by Nick Anton and, most notably for music:led
by the sublime Solomon Ijigade, the chorus, all of whom are African,
are magnetic”
(The Sunday Tribune)
**** “It’s rare to come across a play of such elegant construction...
The African context is provided by Solomon Ijigade, percussionist and
singer, and members of Tower of Babel who surround the stage, singing,
dancing and representing the patient mass of the local population”
(Daily Mail)
