'A slick production explores power dynamics and questions of morality' ★★★★ The Irish Times 

'Will definitely last long in the memory - Oisín Kearney shows real skill as a writer and director'  No More Workhorse 

Anne Garrick has tidied her house and bought the good biscuits. But when Liam Hegarty arrives to interview her, will she tell him what’s really going on with her son? A riveting new play about parenting, power, and what it means to care. 

"One of my must-sees this summer is Oisin Kearney’s new play Good With Faces, a compelling psycho-dance of a drama in which a mother and a social-worker strut, falter, sashay and stumble towards a kind of truth." (Willy Russell)

"A taut two hander where a difficult interview turns into interrogation -  the interrogated turns into the interrogator - and everything is what it is… until it isn’t." (Enda Walsh)

"A cleverly crafted, finely tuned and unsettling new play from Oisin Kearney one of Ireland's most exciting theatrical talents. Stark and surprising, it grips from the moment it begins." (Nancy Harris)

"Kearney is skilled in saying what you're not saying, hiding what shouldn't be hidden, knowing what's worth knowing, hitting nail after nail, completing the puzzle of who we really are, and Good With Faces is a pitch perfect play." (Frank McGuinness)
