Fog Island at Filament Theatre

Around The Town Chicago - Highly Recommended

"...Tim McNulty's Musical direction and score, played and sung by the cast, encompassed both the heightened levels of joy and sorrow found in Irish folk. This, along with the actor's excellent dialects (coached by Lindsay Bartlett), Hutzinger's period costumes, Dendinger's script, and other minimalist but effective technical features conveyed the experience and paradox of a not-so-distant Irish life and culture: a blend of superstition and mysticism, beauty and hardship, love and austerity, and fear and enchantment so that we get a real sense of time and place that will be intense and authentic for adults and children alike.
