Eleanor Tiernan and Niamh Tiernan: - Help! - One4Review

This play written by the Tiernan clan, past Perrier Winner Tommy, stand up comedian Eleanor and her cousin, actress Niamh is the story of comedian Eleanor, who is not nearly as funny as she thinks she is as she fails in her warm up gig for the famous Mulingar Comedy Festival. She has twenty four hours to turn this around and enlists the assistance of Niamh to help her overcome her loss of confidence, as she rants and raves about audiences, material and alludes to being like Beckett at times. Will they turn it around in time? Only time will tell. This play I’m afraid was a bit of a disappointment given the obvious talent in the creative team. I felt Eleanor only really came into her own with her revised set for the audition, and perhaps she would have been best served sticking to what she is obviously very good at, stand up. Niamh had far less scope to work with than her cousin and Tommy, as director had obviously done his bit. **
