Published by Bloomsbury Methuen Drama, 2015


​Sticks and stones didn’t break Her bones, but words and pointing crushed Her.

Is Beauty really only skin deep?


Does Ugliness hide somewhere deeper?


Following the runaway international success of Forgotten and Silent, Fishamble presents Pat Kinevane’s third solo play, Underneath, directed by Jim Culleton.

​

This stunning new play is a blackly comic, rich and vivid tale of a life lived in secret, a testament to the people who live on the fringes, under the nose of everyday life. It explores the surface, and what lies underneath.


​WINNER: ADELAIDE FRINGE BEST THEATRE AWARD Adelaide Fringe Festival 2015

WINNER: SCOTSMAN FRINGE FIRST AWARD Edinburgh Festival 2015

WINNER: STAGE RAW BEST SOLO PERFORMER AWARD, LOS ANGELES FORBES' BEST THEATER ON BROADWAY AND BEYOND LIST

CRITICS’ CHOICE, Los Angeles Times 


​‘Like Olivier’s legendary Hamlet, this is one of those rare performances that will be talked about for decades to come… exciting, hilarious, harrowing and heart breaking… A devastatingly brilliant piece of theatre.’ ★★★★★​ Examiner.com
