The Nose opens at Mullingar Arts Centre

Bruiser Theatre Company is back on the road with this hilarious comedy, The Nose, which opens in the Mullingar Arts Centre on Wednesday April 9.

Written by and starring long-term Bruiser collaborator Patrick J O’Reilly, The Nose shines a merciless light on the murky world of bureaucracy, in a fun, fast, and visually exciting way.

In this fresh new adaptation of Nikolai Gogol’s classic short story, Alexey, a government bureaucrat, awakens one morning horrified to discover that his nose has run off! Join Alexey as he frantically tries to stop his runaway nose from causing him all manner of public humiliation and get back on his face!

This adaptation preserves Gogol’s whimsical and humorous writing style and pokes fun at the incompetence of ‘the powers that be’ and the superficial nature of society’s ‘respectable’ classes.

Tickets €15/€12 are available from the Arts Centre box office on 044 9347777 or from reception on the night.
