    Therapy Seisiún is a quiet, introspective gem. Richter captures a moment of tipsy yearning and unspoken desire with subtlety and heart. The dynamic between Brendan and Daniel is relatable and real, leaving the audience reflecting on the small, yet meaningful, choices we make in relationships.

    As a kid who grew up sleeping in pub booths on dad's gig nights, I've overheard versions of these guys my whole life. It would be easy to draw a more hyperbolic, over-the-top portrait of them -- but Richter exercises great restraint & digs into a quieter moment of aimless tipsy longing. What does it mean to want something you've only let yourself experience at a distance? Why do we do that? What could happen if we choose to draw closer? Worthwhile questions the audience will ask themselves after sitting with this piece.
