Indeed - I work with them from time to time - perhaps now the 'sung hero' after being the (only?) winner in Irish budget - money held and addition €3m for US projects in 2011...great news.

Alice Martin, our assistant, has asked me to relay this information.

You must get your Aftershow accreditation from the Guest List entrance on arrival at the Academy, even if you already have a show ticket. I think I'm right in saying this entrance is at the side of the venue, a few yards away from the Stage Door.

Mr Edwards, something called a "viewing platform" has been arranged for you and your companions.

Thank you.


Mr Edwards, sorry I didn't catch this bit before and didn't get to say hello. Hope you had a wonderful time!
It was very nice meeting Phro - get home safely!

I don't know what the times are on the Brixton website, but mine are direct from our Production Manager.

Yes. Brantley has his eccentricities, but he's been a consistent supporter of Druid's work ever since Beauty Queen of Leenane. Incidentally, The Silver Tassie will play in New York for a week in July 2011 as part of the Lincoln Center festival.


That's great news...saw the Beckett works from the Gate at that Festival a couple of years ago. and all alongside a big tour of Cripple of Inishmaan too - their capacity to get shows out and about in Ireland and internationally is phenomenal! Abbey have Borkman in NYC (BAM) in Jan and Terminus touring as well in US...big year for Irish theatre in US - building the reputation one city at a time!

Our Aftershows, when they occur at all, are incredibly informal, despite the note about "accreditation" above, and are rarely, if ever, attended by everyone in the band. But requests must be made well in advance, sorry.

That's just conjured up an image of eight of you all tucked up, with good old 'Paxo' updating you with the evening's news whilst handing out mugs of steaming hot beverages in the manner of Snow White!!
Incidentally, Paxman has long been a favourite of mine since this interview:
