Dublin Theatre Festival 2024: This original new musical has all the components for a hit
Dream Factory review: Parody of society’s environmental and ethical self-flagellation is hilarious from start to finishA friend once told me the best children’s shows are the ones that make them laugh the hardest. I disagree: it’s the ones that make their parents laugh harder.
Set in the fictional town of Ballyplastic , it introduces us to Brida Spring , a young girl alienated by the hypercapitalistic Dream Factory that dominates society under a glitzy sheen. Throughout the show we meet a Trumpian chief executive with a hilariously soft underbelly , who takes direction from a mysterious giant sheep , Wizard of Oz style.
Predictably, it concludes with the audience dancing its socks off in an effort to banish the megalomaniac sheep.
