Enda Walsh’s ‘Disco Pigs’ launched the career of Cillian Murphy and now the two are reunited for this stage version of Max Porter’s novel about grief. Murphy plays a man, writing a book about the poet Ted Hughes, caring for his two young sons in the wake of his wife’s death. Then Crow turns up on the doorstep and offers to stay until the family don’t need him anymore. But when will that be? There were rave reviews when this show premiered in Galway last year.
