We don't use the word BRILLANT lightly, but these brillant reviews for
OH, BROTHER  are deserved!

Written by Callum Maxwell

Directed by Lee Coffey

Performed by Callum Maxwell as Michael

 & Ruairí  Lenaghan as Matthew.

Matthew and Michael have both always wanted one thing. A sibling. Now all they have to do is meet. Easy right? But how do you introduce yourself to someone you should already know? Filled with anxiety, hope and no questions unasked. A tale of two brothers united at last.

This witty, hard-hitting show follows our two lads as they juggle the expectations versus the reality of having a brother. All catapulted forward by general anxiety, fear of the unknown and the reason they never got to meet in the first place - their Mam.

‘Seriously impressive debut’… The Arts Review.

‘Audience is treated to comedy, pathos and everything in between’.. The Reviews Hub
