The Lieutenant of Inishmore
Synopsis
Wee Thomas was a friendly cat. Who knocked him over on a lonely road on the island of Inishmore, and was it an accident? His owner, handsome and mad padraic, will want to know when he gets back from a stint of torture and chip-shop bombing – he loves his cat more than life itself.
Combining razor-sharp, outrageously funny dialogue with scenes of often graphic violence this is a wild night at the theatre not to be missed.
Following the critically acclaimed success of The Pillowman at Curve in 2009, Paul Kerryson directs this brilliantly satirical comedy by multi award-winning writer, Martin McDonagh whose other successes include the film In Bruges and the Academy Award-winning short film Six Shooter.
Contains violent scenes and language that may offend.
