'Hello
Andromeda' was a new play written by Carrick-on-Suir writer Gerry
Moran and directed by Liam Murphy.
This
is from Liam's 'Notes from under the Paint Tin':
In
Shakespeare's Henry V the 'oirish' Captain MacMorris asks
'What ish my nation?...Ish a villian, and a bastard, and a knave
and a rascal....'
Gerry
Moran asks the same question in Andromeda, WHAT ISH MY COUNTRY?,
with a contempt and contemporary vision culled from pop videos
and a TV culture. A Shakespearian dilemma in a Ridley Scott wasteland
with a smatterring of Beckett and futility. A land of Moran and
Moronic subculture of surreal political satire and social commentary. |
