McDonagh's classic dark comedy

Kilmeen Drama Group presents THE LONESOME WEST By Martin McDonagh WED 24 APR, 8PM  Directed by Christy O’Sullivan As part of The Leenane Trilogy, The Lonesome West encompasses McDonagh’s black comic style that would go on to define his plays and films. Valene and Coleman are two brothers who have lived together for years with constant petty squabbling. Now after their father’s death, and following the exhortations of the local priest, a new understanding could develop – could – if the two brothers could stop arguing over crisps, ornaments, who left the top off Valene’s pen and whose turn it is to read a magazine. The best amateur drama The Everyman has to offer.  BOOK NOW YOU MAY ALSO LIKE Bill Elms Productions and Asa Murphy present IRISH ANNIE'S Starring Ricky Tomlinson, Catherine Rice and Asa Murphy MON 8–TUE 9 APR, 8PM Breda Cashe and Pat Moylan present TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE By Mitch Albom Starring Dan Butler (Frasier) and Stephen Jones (Northern Lights) TUE 30 APR–THU 2 MAY, 7.30PM LOVE YOUR LOCAL THEATRE Sign up for a Friends membership and you'll receive a host of benefits, including 2 sets of complimentary tickets to selected shows.
