Booking number for Lieutenant of Inishmore

If you were trying to book for The Lieutenant of Inishmore with the phone number on initial posters and signage, you'll have found it was an incorrect number, writes Brian Byrne. The correct one is 087 4707652.

Meantime, rehearsals are going strong for the Kilcullen Drama Group production scheduled to run from 24-26 April, a Martin McDonagh play set just after the signing of the Good Friday agreement. When a self-styled 'Lieutenant' in the Irish National Liberation Army, busy with nasty mayhem in Derry, hears that his beloved pet cat on the Aran island of Inishmore is unwell, he drops everything and returns to the island. But it's all much more than about a cat. 

The Kilcullen group are no strangers to McDonagh's particular style of black comedy, having previously presented The Beauty Queen of Leenane, A Skull in Connemara and The Lonesome West — the playwright's famed Leenane Trilogy — to deserved acclaim. Their current production is directed by Eilis Phillips, with a cast comprising Sinead McKenna, Adam Treacy, Maurice O'Mahoney, Gerry O'Donohue, Dave Byrne, Fergus Ryan, Alan Clarke and Enda O'Neill. 

Tickets €15. Again at the correct number 087 4707652.
