Captioned Performances by State

Continuing our recently acquired reputation for bringing you some of the world’s great theatre companies, Merrigong presents this acclaimed, hilarious black comedy from Ireland’s legendary Druid Theatre.

It’s 11 o’clock in the morning in a council flat on London’s Walworth Road. In two hours time, as is normal, three Irishmen will have consumed six cans of ale, fifteen crackers with spreadable cheese, ten pink biscuit wafers and one oven-cooked chicken with a strange blue sauce. In two hours time, as is normal, five people will have been killed. The Walworth Farce is a tender insight into what happens when we become stuck in the stories we tell ourselves about our lives.

This exhilarating farce has wowed festival audiences around the world and shot playwright Enda Walsh to international fame, earning him a growing reputation as one of Ireland’s great playwrights.
