Overview

When two women, both called Lisa, meet for the first time, they come to realize they have more in common than just a name.

This immersive, mind-bending drama by Tony-winner Enda Walsh features tour de force performances by two of Ireland’s most celebrated theatre actors, Eileen Walsh and Catherine Walsh.
