Comments about the play: There is a online review on the production of Dancing at Lughnasa at my university. http://www.thedailypage.com/arts/article.php?article=41105
Also from what I saw:
Actors didnt perform their roles as specific as it should be
Agnes (Aggy) never showed romantic feelings for Gerry throughout the play only to be review later that they do have something for each other to the surprise of the audience.
Rosey – no one knew she was older and had a disorder (looks too young)
