Its 8pm each night:-)) people turned away last night so booking advisable.
Went to see The Mercy Seat last nite and was very impressed! First time at an impact performance and thoroughly enjoyed it! Will be telling everyone i know to go!
Great night out in all from the word go. Loved it, not much of a theatre goer but I would definitely go back here again- nice one
reminded me of lots of arguments i had in the past though :-(
Brilliant-impact constantly amazing me with their innovative and exciting work.Great play and loved the set-created great atmosphere,BUT ,its the performance of both actors that really blew my mind-outstanding acting and fair dues to both of them for keeping the audience gripped for an hour and a half!
DON'T HESITATE -GO AND SEE THIS SHOW XXXXX
I would like to commend Impact Theatre on an excellent performance of The Mercy Seat (Friday performance). I'm a fan of Neil LaBute's film work so I was curious about how he'd tackle a play involving only 2 characters. As it happened, the play is well-written, engaging, humorous and thought-provoking. Fortunately, the actors' performances were brilliant and they managed to bring these two people to life and to keep the audience's minds on the play and the issues it raised. Well done
