'Cash' play for Kilcullen

Kilcullen Drama Group have begun rehearsals for their winter play presentation.

Cash on Delivery is a comedy by Michael Cooney, a son of Ray Cooney who is famous for his comedic drama and farces.

The play is about the hilarious problems of a family when a complex fiddling of benefits from the DHSS in Britain begins to unravel. The principal character has set up a household of ficticious lodgers on whose behalf he collects various kinds of benefits.

When he gets qualms of conscious and decides to end the situation by 'killing off' his 'lodgers', things go rapidly downhill and the belly laughs increase in inverse proportion.
