Wow. The Prime Cut production of #ThePillowman Lyric Theatre Belfast is dark AF, but also hilarious & thought-provoking.

What better way to process it than a solo walk home? 🫣

Darkest of dark & wicked wit, #ThePillowman is in skilful hands with Prime Cut’s emma jordan’s direction. Stellar cast Abigail McGibbon Rosie McClelland Keith Singleton David Murphy MacColl Steven Calvert Jude Quinn & two young stars! Ciaran Bagnall’s chilling set is out of this world

The Pillowman opening night - what a script, what a cast, what a design team, what a crew, what a director, what brilliant co-producers, what a night!! ⁦Prime Cut⁩ ⁦Lyric Theatre Belfast⁩ ⁦Arts Council of Northern Ireland⁩

I’ve not stopped thinking about this play and production - that’s the sign of brilliant theatre.

We have seriously talented and gifted artists working in the city of Belfast and coming through Lyric Theatre Belfast it just blows my mind - every time.
