Writer: Pat Kinevane, Director: Jim Culleton

Forgotten is a solo piece of theatre which reveals the interconnecting stories of four elderly people, living in retirement homes and care facilities around Ireland, who range in age from 80 to 100 years old. 1943 was a curious year for this quartet – their lives have never been the same since…

It is, at times, challengingly dark and, at other times, startlingly hilarious. Forgotten is presented in a fusion of European and Japanese Kabuki theatrical styles.

Pat Kinevane’s previous plays for Fishamble include The Nun’s Wood and The Plains of Enna. He has worked as an actor in theatre, film, radio and television for the past seventeen years. Credits include Black Day at Blackrock, A Mother’s Love’s A Blessing, King Arthur, Ballykissangel, I Keano and The Late Late Show Murder Mystery.

‘***** Kinevane is a powerful force - this is an unequivocally beautiful piece’ The Scotsman

‘a piece of theatre not easily forgotten - a performance of rare authority and completeness’ The Sunday Tribune

‘astonishingly realised - a consummate act of storytelling…a striking accomplishment; captivating, moving, and -yes- even unforgettable.’ The Irish Times
