REVIEW: The Boat Factory

Dan Gordon wrote and starred in The Boat Factory, a moving play about workers in the shipyards in East Belfast. Michael Condron delivered a fantastic array of accents, and the chemistry between the two actors was fizzing. A play  starring only two people can get slightly dull and drag, but The Boat Factory was fast-paced, funny, and left you knowing an awful lot more about Belfast’s history.

REVIEW: The Queen – Art & Image

A new exhibition at the Ulster Museum shows Queen Elizabeth II in a series of portraits.  This display is to mark her Diamond Jubilee as the Queen of England on the throne.  In collaboration with the National Portrait Gallery, the touring collection is an eclectic mix that ranges from rare, intimate photographs to world famous art pieces.

FEATURES: Let the right one in

If you can read the words written on these pages then there’s a good chance you could read the subtitles of a Swedish vampire film if they were displayed in English, on screen, in time with the dialogue.  If you can understand the words then you could probably understand a film’s story without needing an Americanised context, setting, or Hollywood schmaltzing.
