7 Reece Mews

Tickets and Information

The play 7 Reece Mews is about Mark, a young American artist who goes to Dublin to be near painter Francis Bacon, the man he has taken as his master and teacher. Bacon, being dead, could only communicate through his jumbled possessions, and perhaps through John, a mysterious man who may or may not have been Bacon's last lover. The play is about the mystery and the unfairness of art, which may be taken as a prime type of the mystery and unfairness--and yet the extreme beauty--of life.
