Brokentalkers present Sean Millar’s
Silver Stars
de Sean Millar
Song cycle based on the lives of older Irish gay men. The sell-out hit of the 2009 Dublin Theatre Festival, Silver Stars is based on singer/songwriter Millar’s interviews. These songs capture tales of love, loss, family, spirituality, defiance and joy. A moving and eloquent telling of real-life stories of ordinary men in search of happiness and fulfillment in a country that was challenged by their very existence.
Extraordinary… its effect is simply devastating –
