Silent- Everyman, Cork

Pat Kinevane’s one-man show is a masterclass in storytelling. The actor/writer’s unappealing subjects are mental illness and homelessness. Yet, he highlights these social problems humanely and is never far from a humorous observation or hilarious mimicry.

While such levity might seem inappropriate, it works because it fleshes out the character of Tino McGoldrig, giving the audience an insight into his psyche and past life. Tino is a lot more than the hobo who lives rough on the streets of Dublin.
