The Cripple of Inishmaan

What happens in Inishmaan....stays in Inishmaan literally. But everyone knows the tittle-tattle.....begorrah!
By the author who traumatised us in T he Pillowman , Martin McDonagh's The Cripple Of Inishmaan is a very different journey.
Set in Ireland on the smallest of the Aran Irelands, Inishmaan is a place isolated by time and space, with a community of (duine) Irish folk driven to cruelty by boredom and ignorance.
It's 1934. Some big news is sending the residents of Inishmaan into a frenzy - no, it's not about the sheep with no ears! BIG NEWS!
Crippled Billy Claven sees an opportunity to escape his small town existence. An opportunity for acceptance and a better life.
"Be careful what ye wish for...so.....dreams don't always lead where we expect."
Join us for Billy's adventure, wherever it leads.
