Comet

“The audience was mesmerized… The standing ovation was well deserved.” - The Examiner

“Riveting. Hard hitting - even upsetting to watch.” - Dulwich College, London

“Extraordinary... makes you want to rip your heart out and throw it on the stage.” - St Mary’s, Belfast.

Previously performed as part of Battersea Arts festival’s ‘A nation in conversation’ 2015 in The Mac, Belfast.

“Everybody knows a fella like Comet.”

Developed from actual interviews with young men and women across the UK, COMET is a frank conversation between audience and storyteller of the struggles young people face to integrate, to transition into adulthood and to accept themselves for who they are.

Now making its London Theatre debut, and written by award winning writer John McCann (2015 Fringe First award for his play SPOILING, Traverse Theatre Company), international award winning actor Shaun Blaney (Best actor in a drama, IAWTV, Las Vegas, 2015 and Best Actor, Dublin Web fest, 2015), delivers an intense guerrilla performance which takes traditional ideas of how to connect with an audience and throws them out the window.
