BWW Review: It's Smooth Sailing for JIMMY TITANIC at New Rep

As a one-man show, the Boston premiere of playwright Bernard McMullan's JIMMY TITANIC sinks or swims on the talents of Tir Na Theatre Company's Producing Artistic Director Colin Hamell. Leave the lifeboats tethered, for it's full-steam ahead with his tour de force performance in New Repertory's black box theater. Whether he's characterizing good Belfast boy Jimmy Boylan or the tough talking Supreme Being, Hamell plays nearly two dozen men, women, and heavenly hosts with aplomb.
