The Irish Repertory Theatre presents the World Premiere of The Pigeon in The Taj Mahal Written by Laoisa Sexton (actress and writer of the Off Broadway hits FOR LOVE, and THE LAST DAYS OF CLEOPATRA)
The Pigeon in The Taj Mahal by Laoisa Sexton Directed by Alan Cox Starring John Keating and Laoisa Sexton & cast (TBA)
The Pigeon in the Taj Mahal is a dark comedy about trying to get home.
In the West of Ireland, a lonely outsider is forced to live on an abandoned campsite on the barren outskirts of a seaside town. But late one night, when a lost bachelorette party discovers his caravan, he finds his whole existence challenged and his home life threatened. During this long night of reckoning, amongst the glitter and the grime, a battle for survival ensues, but in these few hours can tender love save us all? Worlds collide in this darkly funny pressure cooker of a play about how we live now, our desperate need to communicate and our hungry search for human connection in the modern world. What exactly do we find when we scratch the surface with our dirty fingernails, what have we got? What is left? What now?
