About Red Lemon Productions:

Formed in 2005, Red Lemon Productions is a professional theatre company that has consistently delivered unique, powerful and visually stunning physical theatre performances to critical acclaim. Red Lemon has had sell-out performances in the Old Museum Arts Centre, at the Brighton Fringe, and will be a participant in this year’s Dublin Fringe Festival.

Praise for Red Lemon’s work includes:

Kissing Marigolds

[it] manages to adapt a text of profound sentiment and produce some of the sleekest and most genuine comedy you are likely to see on stage from a new writer/director… It was a relief to leave the Old Museum Arts Centre having seen a new piece of relevant, young and energetic Northern Irish theatre…

Peter McCloskey, The Vacuum March 2009

Flesh Dense

…their productions always pack a punch and Flesh Dense prompts fits of giggles and gasps of shock long before the body-count notches up… Patrick J O’Reilly’s script shows more imagination than you’re likely to see all year

Brendan Deeds, Culture Northern Ireland, February 2008.
