We didn’t even know the Gate was tackling such a contemporary work.

IT’S CHARLIE MURPHY AND REBECCA GRIMES!!
What is it with Alan Stanford’s love-in with the Gate Theatre? They show a disproportionate amount of his adapted plays which are mostly costume dramas with costumes designed by Peter O’Brien. Stale.
‘Would you like to hear the word of the Lord? “
Strange, that was a reply to a different post and appeared here somehow.
Bob you had me flummoxed. Flummoxed I say.
he looks so much like Paulo Tullio in this picture.
Imagine opening your front door to the top image there.
…..”sorry, Mam made all donations directly to VdeP, thanks”
“Did YOU pay the Ferryman?”
Stephanie Von Twuyner and her fella make an attractive couple ;)
what the hell is chris deburgh doing with his right hand in the first pic?
A space hand went traveling…
Looking for another miss world
You can only imagine the garbage being spewed out of these peoples mouths at this event…..
Thanks.. a pic of Charlie Murphy to get my weekend off to a flying start..
Into nerdy looking lasses are you?
very Nomnomnom
? why is this posted here? losing the will…
what’s with Diane de Burgh’s face?!
Newly injected botox takes a while to settle. But I’m not saying there was botox taken.
She was startled by the spaceman… and his traveling hands?
Yeah, saw them all over in Fibbers afterwards.
It’s ‘back by popular demand’ not sure how, I saw it last time. Poor performance and the Gate is muck.
We walked out of this lightweight production around Christmas…a bare set, cheap costumes, lightweight performances.
The Gate puts on superb productions…this, a first in absolute mediocrity & the masses bring it back!
Brendan Gleeson I have heard of, who are the rest?
mmmmm brendan gleeson, can we get him into budgie smugglers?
His dishy ginger son in a pair would be more pleasing on the eye I think, Fluffy
Oh no Brendan is the old style bear! Mind you I think we should double date!!
I pride myself on the fact that I haven’t got a clue who any of these people are (except that bloke who sang lady)
Because upper class toff is the only accent Stanford can do. Irish thEAtre darlings is as they say ‘up it’s own arse’. Has been for decades. It’s either Fair City (plough and the stars) or Downton abbey( oscar Wilde)…
…have any of these liggers ever bought a ticket? Same interval act at all these openings….the Usual Suspects.
Rebecca Grimes is a bjoor (beaur?). How does one spell that word?
I would spell it beor. She is a healthy specimen I must say
I’ve seen it spelled ‘Beure’ which is a bit too continental for by liking.
Beor is good enough.
