Show Info
part of the 1st irish festival
Written and directed by Dylan Coburn Gray
with Ronan Carey, Sean Doyle, Maeve O'Mahony and Claire O'Reilly
do not bring your kids (or do, but it might scar them for life)
Boys and Girls follows four characters across a single night; two get lucky, two don't.
Emerging from the Irish spoken word scene, this play paints the Dublin nightscape in pyrotechnic verse; 4 intercut voices muse, tease, and rant in an ever-escalating rhythm.
It's quite dirty, quite funny, quite mental, and a bit sad. (Seriously, don't bring your kids.)
After sold-out runs at the Dublin Fringe Festival 2013, Boys and Girls is presented in its New York Premiere by Murmur Productions.
