The Cripple of Inishmaan

 

The Cripple of Inishmaan, Noel Coward Theatre, 2013.

Cast: Ingrid Craigie, Pádraig Delaney, Sarah Greene, Gillian Hanna, Gary Lilburn, Conor MacNeill, Daniel Radcliffe, Pat Shortt, June Watson.

Writer: Martin McDonagh
Director: Michael Grandage

I saw all five plays in this series without really intending to. I guess the appeal of this one was Daniel Radcliffe, who has turned into a better actor than anyone might have expected. Martin McDonagh proved to be more tricky though - as much as I like his films I hate his plays. This wasn't as bad as Hangman (or whatever it was called) but I don't remember it being much fun.
