Reviews of ‘Rashomon’

 

The Irish Times, Gerry Colgan,  5th April 2004

‘A hypnotic stage creation….This is new ground for Storytellers and they have harvested it with profit.’

 

The Irish Examiner, Patrick Brennan, 7th April 2004

‘Its eventfulness hits you the minute you enter the theatre. A triumph for the three actors, the director and Denis Clohessy the composer. The production wonderfully creates all the magic and timeless depths of wisdom that resonates in these indelible tales.’

 

Sunday Independent, Emer O'Kelly,  25th April 2004

‘Liam Halligan has directed with a fine combination of stylised movement and naturalistic playing. ‘

 

Sunday Tribune,  Rachel Andrews,  Sunday 125th April 2004

‘A captivating performance which still achieves a resonance in the world we live today. This production is testament to the power of the classics, bravely and originally reworked. It is also a tribute to a kind of theatre that is neither lavish nor timid, but, like the story itself, searches for the truth at it’s heart.’

 

Sunday Business Post,  Elizabeth McGuane Sunday 2nd May 2004

‘A riveting, brain washing treat!
