BedboundOriginally written and directed by Award winning playwright Enda Walsh, Bedbound premiered to immense critical acclaim at The New Theatre as part of the Eircom Dublin Theatre Festival in 2000. The play then travelled to the Traverse Theatre at the Edinburgh Festival where it won a Fringe First Award and a Critics Choice Award.

Bedbound runs at fever pitch, an exhilarating, violent and tragic interrogation of relentless ambition, pride and the price of success. In this whisky shot of a play, a life spent flogging three-piece suites and Swedish Pine furniture becomes both feverishly exciting and blackly comic. Aided by his polio stricken daughter, Maxie Darcy is bound in a perpetual cycle, re-enacting the most pivotal and horrific moments of his life as a ruthless and devious furniture salesman.

This electrifying new production by ambitious emerging theatre company Pillowtalk reinvigorates this challenging text with talented and daring young cast and an intricate, technically elaborate design. First produced at The Samuel Beckett Theatre as part of the Directing Debut Festival, this production, directed by Rosemary McKenna, achieved a First Class honours commendation.
