The Cripple of Inishmaan at Long Beach Playhouse

Stage Raw - Recommended

"...Our identities, and even the way we see ourselves, are often shaped by the narratives other people have written. And sometimes, it may seem easier to sever relationships or cut ties with a community than attempt to fundamentally transform the way they see you. Billy's abrupt departure for Hollywood is less about becoming an actor than it is about becoming the type of person who would take such a risk. But, comically and tragically, the islanders only ever see him as the cripple of Inishmaan."
