Produktbeschreibung
On a rainy afternoon in Key West, Florida, Brigid ducks into Niall O'Neill's cluttered pub, in search of her keys. Soon, it becomes clear that what Brigid is really seeking is much deeper-and more mysterious. Stories and secrets intertwine as Niall and Brigid balance the fine line between past and present, reality and shadow. "Reminiscent of Samuel Beckett's bumbling philosophers in WAITING FOR GODOT...the torrent that is KEY WEST hits the audience with a barrage of philosophical questions: Is God in every one of us? How is the thin line between ecstasy and insanity drawn? Is there life after death? What is the value of truth, and will we be haunted by our lies? And the story O'Brien weaves is entertaining. His plot drags the audience through the entire spectrum of human emotion before releasing them back into reality... [with] a shocking twist worthy of a good M Night Shyamalan reveal." Erin Morrison-Fortunato, Rochester City Newspaper
