🎭 Robin & Jane In The Stalls | Episode 50 – Denouement at Belfast’s Lyric Theatre 🎭

This week, Robin & Jane step into the near future – or maybe the end of it – as they review John Morton’s Denouement, now running at the Lyric Theatre, Belfast until 15th November.

It’s 2048, Armageddon is on the horizon, and Edel and Liam are spending their final hours together in a remote Irish farmhouse. As the world crumbles outside, they cling to memories, bicker over everything and nothing, and reveal what it really means to love — and to live — when time is running out.

In this episode, Robin & Jane dive deep into:

  • The darkly comic tone of Morton’s writing

  • The powerful performances by Anna Healy and Patrick O’Kane

  • The haunting, absurd humour that makes Denouement both heartbreaking and hilarious

  • Why this world premiere might be one of the Lyric’s boldest productions yet

💬 Plenty of debate about whether some things are better left unsaid… even at the end.

👉 Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your theatre fix!

🎟️ Denouement runs at the Lyric Theatre, Belfast until 15th November – don’t miss this extraordinary new play.
