“The sound from HK Ní Shioradáin respectively, adds further flourish to the production. The music is a key component that is used to perfection here, and the transitions and use of volume, as well as the pre-recorded voices of other characters, all serve to create several different times and places without the actors ever needing to leave the stage.” – The Reviews Hub

“an amusing classical version” of “Kylie Minogue’s latest hit Padam Padam” – The Irish Times

Following a three month affair between two anonymous men, Boyfriends, charts the ups and downs and roundabouts of a modern situationship. As they swing through four million one hundred and ninety one thousand possibilities of what they might mean to one another, through time, sex, Madonna songs, nightclubs, period dramas and calorie counting, Boyfriends asks us to ponder on that age old question: what the f*ck is romance anyway?
