What happens when the weekly chores become unbearable and no one seems to care? And ultimately what does that say about us as a society?
Directed by Jodie Sweeeney, Groceries, a one-woman show starring actress Francesca Garry as Cheyrl the woman merely trying to make it to the exit of the supermarket, is about something more than just shopping.
Groceries takes place at the Pearse Centre on July 24th. Find tickets here.
Francesca Garry is a multi-talented actor,singer/songwriter and co-founder of Suaimhneas Theatre Company alongside Jodie Sweeney. Not only is she a powerhouse to watch on stage she has a luminous energy in whatever role she plays. Both creatives are thrilled to be in the Sprout studio and dive into the world of MNÁ where nothing is quite clear but everything is overwhelming. The work speaks from the voices of all the 20 or 30 somethings out there, asking themselves the tough questions and the main one being, ‘What the hell am I doing?’ Through their sharp wit and courageous vulnerability it will be impossible to not see part of yourself in these characters.
Suaimhneas theatre company is bringing their play MNÁ to this year’s Edinburgh Fringe festival for five nights at the Greenside Venue on George street from the 18th- 22nd of August. Tickets are available here.
