Written and performed by Eva O’Connor and directed by Hildegard Ryan, Mustard is a darkly comic one woman show about heartbreak, madness and how condiments are the ultimate coping mechanism.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “This one-woman show is a theatrical tour de force. It is a captivating and shocking exploration of mental vulnerability following heartbreak, whilst still managing to be funny and absurd.” – Maddie London, Binge Fringe
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “O’Connor’s writing is intricate and intensely moving. Every line of this hour-long monologue is as important as the next. She not only captures heartbreak spectacularly but is also able to give language to the euphoria of new relationships.” – Michelle Wakim, In Daily
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “This journey into a poetic, frightening madness is transfixing in its utterly uncompromising certainty and bull-headed destructiveness.” – David O’Brien, The Barefoot Review
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “What a privilege to see this… if you want to see a bit of real theatre, go see Mustard.” – Scotsman
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Part Fleabag, part Marina Abramovic, it straddles the line between theatre and performance art. The script is densely packed with jokes and rich metaphors and she explores the issue of mental health with sensitivity and aplomb.” – Irish Times
