Upcoming Events in Cork Arts Theatre

 

Bruiser Theatre Company presents Mojo Mickybo by Owen McCafferty Directed by Lisa May Tuesday 23rd – Saturday 27th May 2023 @8pm Saturday 27th Matinee @3pm

Set in Belfast over the summer of 1970, Mojo and his mate Mickybo are two nine-year-old boys from opposing sides of the sectarian divide. They are 'thick as two small thieves', playing headers, being mouthy, and spitting from cinema balconies with the violence of The Troubles only obliquely impacting on them – until finally their friendship is destroyed by it.   This is pure storytelling with Bruiser’s dynamic physicality. Winner of 'Best Ensemble' and Nominated for 'Best Director' at the Irish Times Irish Theatre Awards, 2022, Mojo Mickybo has received outstanding audience feedback and critical acclaim across the board. “This is a piece of theatre that deserves the biggest of audiences.” - Cathy Brown, No More Workhorse “What we have here is a stunning, breath-taking piece of theatre.” - Conor O’Neill, Culture Crush NI Early bird tickets on sale now, 15 Euro Tickets 20 Euro
