SILENT
Written and performed by Pat Kinevane
Directed by Jim Culleton
Presented in its U.S. premiere by Irish Arts Center in 2012, and winner of an Olivier Award in 2016, SILENT is the touching and challenging story of homeless McGoldrig, who 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.
A New York Times Critic’s Pick, SILENT offers a brave, bleak, beautiful performance by Pat Kinevane, who "doesn’t just demand [the audience’s] attention, he commands it" (Ben Brantley, New York Times).
