Theatre - The Gigli Concert

Gate Theatre, Dublin

It’s rare you see a classic play rendered as perfectly as this. Tom Murphy’s masterpiece about the soul and its greatest conduit — the human voice raised high in song — has to be delivered at the right pitch if it’s to reach the soaring crescendo to which it builds.

Fortunately, in the hands of a majestic cast and an appropriately ‘dynamic’ director, David Grindley, this production is a genuine delight.
