Group Therapy for One

THEATREclub (Ireland)

Devised by Shane Byrne and Grace Dyas
Performed by Shane Byrne
Directed by Grace Dyas
Designed by Ciarán O'Melia


Shane’s a bit f****d up. 

He wants you to be the witness at an inquest into his life. 

With the softness of his mother, and the bravado of his father, he will tell you things he doesn’t want you to know. Some say he’s comedy gold. Other’s think he’s self-indulgent. Why don’t you decide?

THEATREclub are Shane Byrne, Doireann Coady and Grace Dyas. They make shows about themselves and the people and things around them. Created with fun and love, and framed by manic ambition, their work is visually electrifying, drenched in substance and socially engaged. Group Therapy For One was first presented at the Dublin Fringe Festival 2009, where it was performed in Shane’s family home and nominated for Spirit of The Fringe.

Reviews

[Shane] is bright, ambitious, funny, charismatic, has a wonderful way with words… a refreshing, thought-provoking and engaging piece of theatre… you’re in for a treat

THEATREclub, an infuriatingly young company with only slightly less energy than the national power grid

It’s Shane Byrne here.

I’m the guy form the picture with the facepaint like a tiger.

I’m the guy who is fucked up.

I am very excited about coming to perform at this gorgeous festival. Can’t wait to meet all of you Kilkenny Attendees.


Book a ticket.

all my love,

Shane.

I like the picture…
Don’t want to necessarily go see a show about someone who professes to “being fucked up” in the opening line of their shows content.

Sounds a bit… bratty?

Hi Treasa,

We assure you that Shane is no brat. He is a lovely boy. Really. He just has some problems. Thats why we said he is F****d up. Why don’t you come along and decide for yourself?
