How Now Mrs Brown Cow

How Now Mrs Brown Cow is the fourth and final play in the Mrs. Brown Series by Brendan O'Carroll, preceded by For The Love of Mrs. Brown. The plot centres on the character Agnes Brown getting her family prepared in the run up to Christmas. The play is 120 minutes long as of June 2015 (With half an hour interval inbetween)

Plot

It's just weeks to go to Christmas in the Brown house. The turkey is getting plucked and Grandad is getting stuffed (Or is that the other way around). Agnes is excited because her son Trevor whom she has not seen in five years has promised to pay a Christmas Visit home. However Cathy returns from her trip to America with unwelcome news, but who will tell Mammy? Rory Brown is distraught because his partner Dino has tried to drown him, Mark and Betty do their best to keep everybody calm, while nobody is sure what to do about Winnie's big box or Granddad‘s little hamster.

How Now Mrs Brown Cow was originally toured in the North of England and Ireland in 2010.

Criticism

O'Caroll has received criticism over his live shows as they have been adapted into the 23 episodes of the BBC TV series Mrs Brown's Boys, thus making a lot of his stage material seem a repeat of what the television series has shown, however, he wrote the plays before the TV series. Despite this, the 2013 tour received 4.5/5 based on 1,000 reviews on Ticketmaster.[14]

The Plays

How Now Mrs Brown Cow is the fourth play in the live series. The preceding plays are: Good Mourning Mrs Brown, Mrs Brown Rides Again and For the Love of Mrs. Brown.
