Pat McCabe is back in The Glens Centre!

Fight2Flight Theatre Company presents ‘Country and Irish’ by Patrick McCabe in The Glens Centre, Manorhamilton on Tuesday, April 25 at 8pm.

A man, a banana and a tape recorder. …and a bomb.

Donie Burris has a whole heap of troubles facing him: with his girlfriend, her son, Albanian gangsters, the Longford mafia and a very overbearing mammy. How can he get them all off his back? He imagines himself as the star of his own gangster movie, and he won’t go down without a fight…

Fight 2Flight Theatre presents Patrick McCabe’s play Country and Irish, a hilarious but savage portrait of a man at the end of his rope, starring Peter Gowen. It is a wild joyride that pays homage to film noir, Samuel Beckett and even the Teletubbies – a startling, provocative fever dream. Featuring a soundtrack of terrific music worthy of the title, Country and Irish is like nothing else you’ll see this year.
