The way that one tells a story is often just as important as the tale that’s being told, which is why the clash of cacophony and tedium that comprises Enda Walsh’s Medicine ― currently playing at St. Ann’s Warehouse ― struck me as such an enervating experience.
Enda Walsh brings his newest play, Medicine, to St. Ann's Warehouse following rave reviews at the Edinburgh International Festival and a sold-out premiere at the Galway International Arts Festival. Medicine tickets are on sale now.
John Kane is sitting on a hospital gurney, and very shortly a jazz percussionist, two women called Mary, a very old man and a giant lobster will arrive. Then everything will start. Medicine is a play that takes a look at how society treats the mentally ill and involves the audience in the experience.
