About the Project
Cherry Picnic is a blistering, violent, farce-like descent into hell for on a run-down English housing estate – with no way back!
- ’McNeilly has created a hilarious, foulmouthed, surreal world where the universal language of self-help has infiltrated the patios of the second rate hitman…
Acted with precision and gusto…Cherry Picnic is as engaging, dangerous and laugh-out-loud piece of fringe theatre as you’ll find…
The detail of McNeilly’s direction and the use of sound to power the narrative make this a must see evening’. – Piers Eady, Ham and High, London
‘Funny and fast moving…top notch gags’. – Time Out, London
- ‘This is a well crafted and inspired script that makes you laugh out loud…strong acting and good direction make it a hilarious evening out’. – Camden New Journal, London
‘The writing is sharp and witty and the imagery used is very evocative…descends into violent farce, with an ending that wouldn’t look out of place in a John Webster play’. – Theatre World
