Ep. 70: A life in the arts with playwright Jim Nolan and actor Michael Power

In this episode of the podcast, Jenny speaks to Jim Nolan and Michael Power who have just finished their sold-out run of Jim’s new play Castel Gandolfo at Garter Lane Arts Centre in Waterford. The play revolves around a family whose long-buried secret threatens to unsettle the delicate balance they have established. The production also featured IFTA-nominated Carrie Crowley in the role of the returning mother-figure, Dolly, and a cast from the Four Rivers company which aims to bring new and classic plays to audiences in the south east. In the podcast, Jim discusses the play and his life as a playwright and director from the 1970s to the present, and Michael reflects on his development as an actor as he has moved from variety shows and musicals to parts in Normal People, Vikings, and a variety of roles in local and national theatre productions.
