Hide AdThis isn’t White Cobra’s first foray into the works of McDonagh, having successfully toured The Beauty Queen of Leenane in 2019.
This latest tour was postponed in 2020 due to the lockdowns, and the group are excited to be back on the road.
The cast includes Fraser Haines (Educating Rita, Twelfth Night) as Coleman, White Cobra co-founder Richard Jordan (Scaramouche Jones, The Beauty Queen of Leenane) as Valene, Ben Stanton (The Graduate, Little Shop of Horrors) as Father Welsh and Olivia Hulley (Educating Rita) as Girleen.
This production contains very strong language and adult themes which some may find upsetting.
