Outside Mullingar Reviews
DCTheatreScene- Recommended
"...The dilemma which animates the first Act is whether Tony will leave the hardscrabble family farm to Anthony, or sell it to a nephew and leave Anthony the cash. This seems to be a low-stakes crisis — Anthony hates farming — more important to Rosemary (for reasons which will become apparent) than to the apparent beneficiary. It goes on too long (Keegan wisely ends the first Act after the third scene, and carries the fourth scene into the second Act), but the actors — Adams and Rhea in particular — never lose their investment in the argument, and so we continue to be engaged by the production even when we might not be by the text."

"...John Patrick Shanley's Outside Mullingar may not be as significant of a play as his award-winning Doubt, but with the right cast it can certainly be just as moving, but in a different way. This proves to be the case at Keegan Theatre. Looking at its strong history of presenting works set in Ireland, it's of little surprise that the ambitious small theatre company succeeds with this one as well. However, I would even go as far to say that it's one of Keegan's best productions of "Irish" plays to date."
