Terminus
Abbey Theatre : : Ireland's National Theatre
Hold tight as the ordinary turns extraordinary in this vivid and exhilarating play. Catapult from the bustling streets to the skies above Dublin, then plummet deep to the bowels of the earth as three people are ripped from their daily lives and thrown into a fantastical world of singing serial killers, avenging angels and love-sick demons.
“An explosive, astounding piece which gallops along, setting the stage alight with urgent, exciting poetry.” --The Observer/Guardian
As their stories progress, the narratives begin to intersect and crisscross, and their emotions, yearnings, and desires simmer and occasionally explode. Filled with humor, hope, and so much humanity that one leaves the play with a greater sense of being. While the characters journeys may end when the lights go out, yours will be continuing the tale for long after.
