What's It All About?
It's an absorbing piece of storytelling nased in history. It's about the friendship of two Belfast shipyard workers, Davy Gordon (Dan Gordon) and Georgie Kilpatrick (Michael Condron). The story begins in 1947 when Davy takes an apprenticepship at the Harland and Wolff shipyard, which built th Titanic.
Both actors play a variety of characters as the two men develop a relationship and share memories. It's touching, humorous and great storytelling
What are the Highlights?
Just the right mix of history and theater. Nice enhancements with photo projections and some music composed by Chris Warner.

None. Catch it before it closes this weekend.
