Writer CHRISTIAN O'REILLY said: ‘I’m looking forward to working with this brilliant group of actors and reuniting with director Raymond Keane, whose visionary production of No Magic Pill in 2022 gave Irish theatre audiences a disability-themed show unlike anything they’d seen before – fast-paced, funny, irreverent, surprising, romantic and visually sparkling. I’d like to welcome Eric Fitzgerald, who will play our lead character Martin and blew us away when he auditioned. He will bring a whole new energy to No Magic Pill and break audience hearts in the best way possible.’
Director RAYMOND KEANE said: ‘Working on No Magic Pill has elevated me as an artist and as a person. It is one of the most challenging, rewarding projects I have worked on. I can’t wait to get back with my new and old tribe. Come join us.’
Actor ERIC FITZGERALD, who is taking on the lead role of ‘Martin’, said: ‘I am beyond ecstatic to be involved in this production. I could not have hoped for a better cast and crew to gear me up for the biggest role I have ever undertaken. I am really looking forward to performing alongside the talent of No Magic Pill, and to showcase my own acting abilities.’
