John Morton’s dark comedy play Denouement will premiere as part of Lyric Theatre Belfast’s 2025 Season!
It’s 2048. And it’s the end of the world.
Edel and Liam are living out the final hours in a remote Irish farmhouse at the base of a mountain. Liam frantically rat-a-tats his memories on a battered old typewriter, while Edel tries to connect with their children to say their final goodbyes.
Set against an extraordinary apocalyptic backdrop, Denouement is a funny, tragic and slightly absurd observation of what remains when everything else is gone.
As the world collapses around them, Edel and Liam show the might of the human spirit as they navigate the end of the world with humour, honesty and decades of shared history.
Are some things better left unsaid, even at the end?
Denouement will run at Lyric Theatre Belfast from Tuesday 21st October to Saturday 15th November.
Tickets are available now!
This bold piece of new writing will stay with you long after the curtain closes.
