Myles Breen: Unbecoming a Lady

Myles Breen wrote Language UnBecoming A Lady and, as Bobby, a gay man, he performs it solo, aided only by the songs of the divas Bobby adores. Language UnBecoming A Lady is both camp and very real and earthy. It’s a measure of the writing and Myles Breen’s performance – in particular, how he slips in and out of high camp and then into a more grounded, concrete self in order to distil the complexity of Bobby – that the play cuts the right balance between sentimentality and artistry. It not only tells the tale of a gay man’s progress into maturity but we also get a touching historical journey through the Ireland of the last 30 years and how our perspective and humanity has changed for the better." - Irish Theatre Magazine
