"Flanagan's Wake", is an interactive comedy which has been playing in Chicago for 16 years, as well as other cities such as Boston, Los Angeles, Cleveland, Rochester, Milwaukee, Green Bay, Pittsburgh, and Philadelphia, Minneapolis, and Detroit.
November 13th marked the first production in the Manhattan venue,which is now playing at the Sweet Caroline's Theater. According to the show notes, the audience is invited "to join the villagers of Grapplin, Ireland, as they mourn and grieve the passing of one of their own as only the Irish can." The New York cast includes James Houton, Mary Theresa Archbold, Pay Shay, Brett Waldon, Michael Kevin Baldwin, Mike Connell, and Abigail Gullo(my dear friend).
I absolutely enjoyed this play! It was hilarious of course and the actors was so skillfully on point with Irish dialect and mannerisms. Do yourself a favor and check this out while it's still in the city. If outside of Manhattan, check your local theater listing for a Flanagan's near you!
Slaandjivaa!!
