Big Maggie

A riveting story of money, land and secret sex.
 
Undoubtedly the hottest ticket in theatres across Ireland in 2011, Big Maggie is now back by popular demand to play the Gaiety for two weeks only after a sold out run last November.
 
Aisling O’Sullivan, John Olohan and Keith Duffy lead a cast of eleven of Ireland’s finest actors in this much loved play by John B Keane. Rave reviews from the November run said “the audience was on board from the start, gasping and sighing and even whooping.” (The Irish Times), and described Aisling O’Sullivan’s portrayal of Maggie Polpin as a “stunningly powerful lead performance” (The Irish Independent).

 

This show sold out at every venue in 2011 – book early and don’t miss it this time around. For full details see www.druid.ie
