An Irish Carol Reviews
DC Theater Arts- Highly Recommended
"...The set of An Irish Carol is an authentically warm Irish pub flush with Christmas decorations, a tap that only spouts Guinness, and a sign above it all says "Failte," an Irish word meaning "welcome." In this delightful Dickensian tale, Matthew J. Keenan, the playwright and set designer of An Irish Carol, creates both a set and a story that welcomes audience members into a cozy and compelling world each December at The Keegan Theatre."
MD Theatre Guide- Highly Recommended
"..."An Irish Carol," as the title suggests, is heavily inspired by the Charles Dickens novella and its stage versions that populate a theatre goer's calendar this time of year. It takes place in Dublin during the Great Recession, where protagonist David (Kevin Adams) is struggling to keep the traditional pub (inherited from his father) he has run for decades afloat in a city that seems more interested in modern watering holes."
