The Absence of Women - Lyric Theatre Belfast

My production shots of The Absence of Women by Owen McCafferty and directed by Rachel O'Riordan.

The Absence of Women centres on Gerry and Iggy, two labourers from Belfast who are facing the end of their lives talking of the present and thinking of the past. They argue about who has the biggest liver, the names of tube stations and whether they should go back to Belfast or not. This play is about life and its endless possibilities, missed opportunities and how one man’s choice, in one instant, can alter the path of his life forever.



One of the best plays I have seen in ages, it's run has finished at the Lyric in Belfast, but it is currently showing at the Tricycle Theatre in London.
