 Email Aedin Moloney to us to claim a pair of tickets to see "When I Was a Girl I Used to Scream and Shout," starring Aedin Moloney, before it closes this Sunday, May 8!Aedin Moloney seriously shines in Sharman Macdonald's play "When I Was a Girl I Used to Scream and Shout," which closes on Sunday, May 8. We have some tickets to give away-- it's ideal for a mother's day outing... it's about mothers and daughters!
And to make it even more special, Aedin's father, Paddy Moloney of The Chieftains, composed original music for the show, his first Off-Broadway score.
We posted a review about the show: here are some of our thoughts about it!
 There's something poignant about the fact that Fallen Angels' production of "When I Was a Girl I Used to Scream and Shout" ends on Mother's Day, Sunday, May 8, at the Harold Clurman Theatre.
Scottish playwright Sharman Macdonald's play explores a fraught relationship between a mother and daughter, beginning in the present, when the daughter is 32 and on a beach holiday with mum, and flashing back to the daughter's teenage years, when she takes a desperate step to keep a mum she doesn't even really get along with by her side.
As that mum, Morag, Aedin Moloney shines. Even when she's nagging her daughter Fiona (Barrie Kreinik) about providing her with a grandchild, you can't help liking her. She puts so much heart in each moment that your stomach hurts for her.
Read the rest here!
Jump on it!
Cheers,
Gwen
