‘Colm and Brenda Meaney shine’
The Irish Times

★★★★ ‘a gripping revival’
The Stage

Colm Meaney and Brenda Meaney star in this major revival of Enda Walsh’s savagely funny play.

Audiences were blown away by Colm and Brenda Meaney’s performances during sell-out runs this summer. Now you can experience this intimate, close-up look at Enda Walsh’s explosive two-hander from the comfort of your home.

This on-demand performance was filmed in front of a live audience during its critically acclaimed run at the 2023 Galway International Arts Festival.

★★★★‘Colm Meaney … a masterclass performance’
The Arts Review

‘Brenda Meaney … magnetic, electric, extraordinary’
RTÉ Arena

Colm Meaney – whose recent stage performances included Cat on a Hot Tin Roof in the West End and The Iceman Cometh on Broadway – returned to the Irish stage for the first time in over 40 years, to play the once-flamboyant furniture salesman. Brenda Meaney played his daughter, confined to a small bed.

I give in ta the words. I let go. Go.

Father and Daughter are bound, inextricably, to each other. And the walls are closing in.

He talks frantically about his extraordinary past in furniture sales; she talks no less compulsively about anything at all, to fill the terrible silence in her head.

What would happen if the torrent of words … just stopped?

Landmark Productions joined forces once again with co-producing partners Galway International Arts Festival for the latest in a series of significant productions of Enda Walsh’s plays.
