The Walls

a new play by Colin Teevan (2001)

Dublin. The night before Christmas and Mr and Mrs Walls are preparing for the arrival of their son, Joseph, and his new bride, Mary.

But all is not as it seems for Mrs Walls' happy family. She's afraid she's being watched, whilst all around there1s distressing talk of hobby horses, prawn wontons and underpants.

Colin Teevan's darkly comic new play examines the gradual disintegration of a house, a family and their favourite song.

Mick Gordon was Artistic Director of the Gate Theatre from 1998 to 2000.

Running time is 1 hour and 40 minutes including a 15 minute interval.

The Walls finished on: 11 April 2001
