Original Cast to Perform in New Production of the Smash Hit Comedy BOOM?
By: Stephi Wild Jan. 25, 2018
The Gaiety Theatre presents the Irish hit comedy BOOM? by Isobel Mahon. Directed by Caroline Fitzgerald. The production features a stellar all female cast: Claudia Carroll (Fair City), Isobel Mahon (Glenroe, The Clinic), Maria McDermottroe (Glenroe, Killinaskully), Aisling O'Neill (Fair City, The Chastitute) and Rose Henderson (Fair City, Father Ted).
Selma Mae seems to have the perfect life, beautiful home, children, architect husband.. However, when Carmel her social climbing mother arrives to help her organise a party to celebrate the completion of her state-of-the-art extension, cracks begin to show.
As the motley collection of guests arrive; glamorous neighbour Chloe, tough-talking sister Maeve, and the eccentric Bernie, disaster ensues and the façade of perfection, not to mention the extension itself, begins to crumble...
BOOM? is a comedy set at the height of the mythical economic boom, the people who live the fantasy and those who fall through the cracks, hopefully into something more authentic.
This is a play for anyone who ever had a bad hair day, may never own a helicopter and knows the difference between an abstract sculpture and a bicycle helmet.
