Alone it Stands

Irish playwright John Breen’s tale of Munster’s famous victory over the 1978 grand-slam All Blacks recieves winning reviews and box office at the Sydney Opera House on its way to a season in Auckland’s Sky City Theatre. The sux Australian actors (including NZEdged Rupert Cox) conjure 50 characters in the course of the play, including some artful Kiwi and Irish accents, a rousing haka and a touch of the blarney: “For its comedy and craft, Alone It Stands proves a winner – a play as charming as it is ballsy.”
