44 – The Dublin Memoir of Peter Sheridan

By the skin of my chin, I managed to catch the closing night of Peter Sheridan’s one man show, 44 Seville Place at the Dolmen Theatre. Based on his memoir of the same name,for anyone ofthe vintage to remember growing up in the 1950’s and 60’s inner city Dublin, it ‘s a nostalgic trip down memory lane.

So you wanna write?

I was asked today how Ikeep going with all the writing…and where do I find the time?


Well…


You sit down and type, scribble or chicken-scratch out the plots and visions of your mind’s eye until your eyes sting, your back creaks, the pads of your fingertips go numb and you glance in the mirror to see the beginnings of tech-neck!
