These are just three of the scenarios played out in Kevin Barry’s wonderfully imagined and riotously entertaining play. Throw in a lust-deranged poultry farmer, a gigantic taxi driver stricken with chilling visions, and you have a stunning, provocative and richly comic collection from a writer of unique gifts. There Are Little Kingdoms chronicles life in the towns and cities of a changing land, where a strange new music sounds, where there are many uncertainties and absurdities, but where still there’s laughter in the dark – which echoes as compassion.
This is a place where everything is changing, and where everything remains the same.
Listen back to Andrew Flynn & Kevin Barry on RTE Arena (26 August) talking about characters exploding off the page and how our actors are having a ball getting There Are Little Kingdoms on its feet for Galway International Arts Festival.
