TABOO

Smock Alley Theatre, Monday 9th June - Saturday 14th June

“What’s the worst first date you’ve ever had?”

Following sold out runs in Cork and Waterford Red ‘n Blue Theatre Company present John Morton’s dark comedy TABOO

There was a boy and a girl and somehow, they met. Lily doesn’t get out much. Tom finds it hard to meet new people. And now they’re having their first date. Lily cooks a three-course meal. Tom brings flowers and wine.

Warnings: Strong Language and sexual references
