Charlie & Nora
by Tina O'Rourke

 

"There is a quiet little gem playing in the Town Hall Theatre this week. Both actors give strong performances but Ger Considine while telling of the love story in his past gives a very special moment to the audience."
Galway Advertiser 10/06/99 Michelle Viney

"Tina O'Rourke's two-hander is a simple but effect piece. Basically a conversation between two lonely middle-aged people on a "date"; It takes place on a rough hewn park bench seranaded by the sounds of ambient traffic - it gradually yields its' story and its' riches. This is a quiet, careful production that repays attention."
The Irish Times 07/10/99 Noeleen Dowling
