The Colleen Bawn

Bedrock Productions, Civic Theatre and Project Arts Centre present The Colleen Bawn.

Love triangles, debt, murder plots and a lot of old blarney... When Hardress Cregan's family falls on hard times, only his marriage to a wealthy heiress, Anne Chute, can save it from ruin. But there's a snag - Hardress is already secretly married to the beautiful, and not so wealthy, Eily O'Connor; and Anne is in love with someone else, Hardress' best friend Kyrle.

Will love win over money? Will a murderous plot succeed? And can they all live happily ever after? This summer the classic Irish tale of The Colleen Bawn is brought vividly to life in this lively and entertaining production from director Jimmy Fay (Playboy of the Western World, Ross O'Carroll Kelly: Last Days of the Celtic Tiger).

By Dion Boucicault & Directed by Jimmy Fay.

Starring: Karen Ardiff, Liz Fitzgibbon, Michael Glen Murphy, Will Irvine, Ian Lloyd Anderson, Charlie Murphy, Ciaran Taylor

Des Bishop

Following a massively successful international tour, Des Bishop makes his highly anticipated return to Ireland.

Inspired by his Father's recent diagnosis of Lung Cancer, Des's latest critically acclaimed show My Dad Was Nearly James Bond tells of a remarkable life tinged with regret. In championing the real heroics of fatherhood, Des challenges many common regrets and the ridiculous ideals of manhood that real, un-slick men try to live up to.

The innate inspiration and dexterity behind this show guarantees an unforgettable and touching comedy experience..

"Edgy material...snappy, never sappy...Bishop has judged this one beautifully" The Age, Australia.

"Charismatic, sincere, eloquent and always seeking the angle" Chortle, UK
