Reviews
“Jealousy, paranoia, dissatisfaction, live music and a beautiful dance to finish (Lizi Watt and Gerard Kelly) under the skillful control of artistic director Anna Leckey and her enthusiastic team. Seventeen creatives, one hotel, many stories, even more imaginations.” Alan in Belfast
“Walking into the courtyard at Belfast’s gorgeous Bullitt Hotel we are met by Anna Lecky, Date Show: After Dark’s artistic director and producer who directs us towards a romantic nook and asks us to wait for our date before adding a swift, “You look amazing tonight, by the way.” There’s a lot of eye contact, some softly spoken words, and even more flirting – and the show hasn’t even started yet – so it’s certainly no coincidence that the trepidation felt before attending Three’s Theatre Company’s Date Show: After Dark was something akin to the nerves felt before a first date.” Pastie Bap
