Theatre: The Walworth Farce

Enda Walsh’s darkly comic domestic farce, about a father and his two adult sons living in a decrepit council flat on London’s Walworth Road, is produced by Kilmeen Drama Group. It’s a bizarre play, and reveals Walsh’s febrile imagination. The father, Dinny (Christy O’Sullivan), is a bully who, every day, makes his sons put on a play about why the Cork family — minus the mother — ended up in London. For Dinny, London is hostile and, apart from Seán (Denis O’Sullivan) going to the supermarket for groceries every day, the family is under ‘house arrest’.

Saw this in the Everyman. Best play ever! #farcehttp://t.co/EFEI6XqhW6
