Reviews for Bedbound:
"'Solas
nua' is Gaelic for 'new light,' and thankfully, this is exactly what
Brick and Murray, the troupe's leaders, are letting in. On the evidence
of the crackerjack 'Bedbound,' Solas Nua is a bright new kid on the
block"
-The
Washington Post –
Peter Marks
“With “Bedbound,”
Solas Nua has once again succeeded in bringing Walsh’s dark vision
to local playgoers.”
-The Washington Examiner
“Where Beckett isolated characters in trash cans and mounds of
earth, letting them lob words into an uncomprehending void, Walsh restricts
his battling father and daughter to a mattress and has them hurl diatribes
at each other. The effect, in Dan Brick's taut production for Solas
Nua, is angrier but no less devastating.”
-The Washington City Paper, Bob Mondello
"Bedbound
is a claustrophobic treasure that elevates Solas Nua to another level
of performance."
"...leaves the audience all but speechless"

Theatre Reviews
____
“Takes over your mind.”- Ben Brantley, The New York
Times
"A
sxty minute mind blowing theatrical experiences." -RTE
“One of the most disturbing, emotionally draining and completely
brilliant theatrical experiences imaginable.”- The Irish Times
“One of the most startling pieces of writing to have emerged on
the Irish stage”- Irish Examiner
“You come to believe in the unbelievable. Walsh, in short, has
created a fully realised, weirdly disorientating dramatic world unlike
any you have previously encountered. Hypnotic and emotionally shattering,
Bedbound is an uncomfortable, unforgettable tour de force.”- The
Daily Telegraph
““Powerful” is a word far over-used to describe theatre,
but if I only get to use it once then it’s now. It was fooking
amazing. Go.”- Salient
