Official Selection of the Origin 1st Irish 2025 Theatre Festival
Sinéad O'Brien's five-star Edinburgh Fringe smash hit "No One Is Coming" makes its long-anticipated New York debut. Lauded by critics as "UNMISSABLE" (To-Do List London), "STORYTELLING AS IT SHOULD BE" (The Herald Scotland), and "HEARTFELT AND POWERFUL" (Everything Theatre London). Written and performed by Sinéad O'Brien and directed by Labhaoise Magee, "No One is Coming" is a dark comedy of mythical proportions about O'Brien's turbulent relationship with her parents in the wake of their mental health struggles. By reframing the stories of Irish legends like Fionn mac Cumhaill and Brian Boru through the lens of her modern day mammy issues, Sinéad shares what it means to become one's own hero. Presented by Fair Play Productions, this riveting one-person show is well worth the trek to An Beal Bocht, famous home of Poor Mouth Theatre Company in Riverdale, The Bronx.
