This is a play of national interest. A great piece of work, I was mesmerised from start to finish.
Arena, RTÉ Radio 1
Busting taboos is what the Fringe is all about, but such is the transgressive conceit of this multimedia piece that it stretches the limits of decency to breaking point.
Irish Times
Poetic and profound.
The Public Reviews
Intelligent, visual and moving.
METRO
The potency of the language lends an almost musical lilt to the performance.
The Public Reviews
Acute autobiographical snippets and sharp observations on attitudes to the Irish language. Shards of earthy humour and real tragedy help reclaim Sayers as a real and complex person.

Conceived and created by Caitríona Ní Mhurchú in collaboration with award-winning visual artist Adam Gibney, co-starring Louise Lewis, choreographed by Ella Clarke and with an original sound design & score by rockers Niall Toner Jr and Les Keye., it draws on autobiographical and archive material & rare film footage to explore the loneliness and dislocation of being an Irish speaker in an urban environment, through the prism of Peig Sayers, and the beautiful, bleak landscape of the Great Blasket.
It is a poetic historical piece of documentary theatre. A cat and mouse game of two biographies, in which Peig Sayers, one of the most hated women in Irish history, is re-imagined.
There is a bit of Peig Sayers in us all. This is her story. Largely. But it is also all of ours. Catholic, protestant, English, Irish, religious, irreverent, and loved and hated in equal measure. Meet Peig Sayers as you have never seen her before.
