Synopsis: | 'Remember the late 1950s? 'Lollipop' and 'Living Doll' on the juke box: boys in natty suits, their hair slicked back in Elvis quiffs; girls in puffball skirts - all of them with one thing on their minds. 'Blackberry Promises' is an evocative exploration of teenage sexuality set in the era that invented the teenager. Excellent and hugely enjoyable.' Bucks Free Press - Reviewer's Choice of the Year. 'First play is a winner. Beautifully crafted and thought provoking.' Bucks Advertiser. 'A gritty tale of late fifties' life which doesn't need to whet the audience's appetite with recipes.' The Stage. | |||||

Notes: | - | |||||
Synopsis: | The credit crunch is biting, the recession's failing to recede and the mobiles are jangling. Six yappies (young aspirational persons) suffering from the maddening ailments of modern day life enter into a quagmire of relationships which has both a heart breaking and hilarious turn of events & Jan Moran Neil's sharp, witty dialogue is expertly handled by a talented cast. Their timing, a crucial element in this fast moving production, is faultless. Bucks Free Press It is a play bursting with wit and energy- a frenetic romp through the angst-ridden, self-centred world of today's young things. The direction remains tightly controlled under the firm hands of Jan Moran Neil and Mike Breen. The casting is spot on. Bucks Examiner | |||||
