We went to the Malthouse Theatre to see "The End of Eddy" an English production that was part of MIFA. Both performers were fantastic working with four screens to present multiple roles while also partnering to play the part of Eddy. This was totally engaging theatre dealing with political issues deftly and bringing to life the trials of working class life in a village in rural France. Eddy's futile attempts to make himself a real man were moving and his courage in finding a path to being himself was inspirational. It was a shame we saw one of the last performances because I intend to tell everyone about this performance.
