Odyssey Theatre presents limited 3-day streaming event:
Olivier award-winning ‘Silent’ by Pat Kinevane

WHAT:
Fishamble, Ireland’s new play company, celebrates 10 years of Irish writer/performer Pat Kinevane’s extraordinary Silent with a special filmed version, streaming July 9 through 11 at OdysseyTheatre.com. L.A.’s Odyssey Theatre Ensemble is Fishamble’s artistic home on the West Coast.

Dare to laugh at despair and gasp at redemption in this brave, bleak, beautiful production for which Fishamble and Pat Kinevane won an Olivier Award in 2016. Homeless McGoldrig once had splendid things. But he has lost it all — including his mind. He now dives into the wonderful wounds of his past through the romantic world of Rudolph Valentino.
