Theatre Lovers Offer: Silent & King
12 June | 8:00 pm
*One ticket is valid for both events
Silent by Pat Kinevane
Silent is the touching and challenging story of homeless McGoldrig, who once had splendid things. But he has lost it all – including his mind. He now dives into the wonderful wounds of his past through the romantic world of Rudolph Valentino. Dare to laugh at despair and gasp at redemption in this brave, bleak, beautiful production for which Fishamble and Pat Kinevane won an Olivier Award in 2016. *Suitable for 14+
King by Pat Kinevane
King tells the story of Luther, a man from Cork named in honour of his Granny Bee Baw’s hero, Martin Luther KING Jr. Luther is troubled but mischievous, lonely but hopeful. While he prepares for a big night out as an Elvis impersonator, he reflects on his past and dares to dream of the future…maybe even of romance. Soon Luther’s evening unfurls into a mad tango between memory and longing. *Suitable for 14+ Contains themes of parental loss, mental health struggles and agoraphobia; strobe lighting and strong language/swearing.
