TRYST

“With witty, razor-sharp dialogue, this is an intense, brilliantly acted play that shimmers with raw honesty.”

“Jeda de Brí and Finbarr Doyle have written a truly terrific representation of an aspect of contemporary life, with sure-fire dialogue and wonderfully layered levels of rage, fear, and disintegrating trust. It’s a complex, unresolved treatment of a very modern insoluble problem, a serious, extraordinarily well-made play that is as thought-provoking as it is gripping.

Superbly directed by de Brí ... Katie Foley’s set design, Nicola Burke’s costumes, Dara Hoban’s lighting design are as effective as the writing and playing.”

“Sickle Moon’s production is an agitated portrait of assured mutual destruction, measured out in duologues about betrayal, consent, envy and abuse. Fans of verbal laceration will enjoy.”

“Provocative and deeply human. ★★★★ ”

“The dialogue is sharp and rapid, the words emotively delivered, whilst drunken memories are conveniently remembered and misremembered. ★★★★”

“This superb, clever piece of writing, excellently executed left me emotionally exhausted. I laughed, cried and sat in shock at the unfolding of a friendship, the unravelling of a regretful night and an impending marriage. Tryst is unmissable, a five-star play. ★★★★★ ”
