B*Spoke Theatre Company's THE SANCTUARY LAMP Hits Dublin, 4/19-4/24
By: BWW News Desk Apr. 19, 2010
THE SANCTUARY LAMP written and directed by Tom Murphy opened in Dublin in 2008 and following this hugely successful run b*spoke theatre company will hit its final leg of the 3 venue tour of THE SANCTUARY LAMP (this time starring Kate Brennan, Declan Conlon, Bosco Hogan, Robert O'Mahoney) in Dublin on April 19th.
The production opened at the Arcola Theatre in London from 10th March until 3rd April, then moved to the Everyman Palace Theatre, Cork from 12th until 17th April and arrives at the Civic Theatre, Dublin for its final performances from 19th until 24th April. Three people locked in a Catholic Church for the night: An ex-circus strongman who prays to the Sanctuary Lamp for strength, a run-away waif haunted by her past and an Irish blackguard...Tom Murphy directs this revival of his own play for b*spoke theatre company. Described by the Guardian as one of Irish Theatre's "proudest possessions", Murphy has been a major influence on a generation of Irish Theatre makers and his distinctive voice remains a major force in the contemporary repertory.
