by Martin McDonagh Directed by Gordon Vallins Main House

Who knocked Mad Padraic’s cat over on a lonely road on the island of Inishmore? Was it an accident? Or something more sinister? He’ll certainly want to know when he gets back from a stint of torture and chip-shop bombing in Northern Ireland because he loves his cat more than he loves life.

McDonagh’s dark comedy pushes theatre to its limits with its mixture of savage violence, explicit brutal action, laughter, gunfire and gore. At its heart this is a brilliant satire on terrorism and appropriately takes us to the edges of good taste.
