Shawry

“Director Sean Paisley Collins ensures the piece moves along at a decent pace.”

“With light and shade, the vast majority of Shawry is a hoot, aimed squarely at die-hard football fans in general and Collingwood supporters in particular (when the club’s theme song is played, many open their lungs). More than that though, it is also a very human story because like the man himself, the play presents Tony as a decent, ordinary bloke without airs or graces who had a gift. Of course, it also manages to poke some well-meaning fun at Shaw. Neil Cole’s turn of phrase remains readily accessible throughout.”
