A captivating night of theatre as Butt Drama Circle and Balor DCA present 2 One Act plays – A Matter of Rights and The Wife, Her Cat and all the Other Stuff

A Matter of Rights
by Conor Malone
directed by Shaun Laverty

Da doesn’t like immigrants. There’s too many of them. And the ones who aren’t skiving off handouts are taking our jobs. He’s just spent three months in prison, arrested for breach of the peace while protesting outside a hostel earmarked for Asylum Seeker accommodation.

Son doesn’t approve of his Da’s views. Or his actions. Now that he’s home he’s determined to have it out with him.

A powerful new play examining a fractured family and the fractured society that is Ireland today.

A Matter of Rights is the Butt Drama Circle’s entry into this years All Ireland One Act Drama Festival circuit. It stars JC Bonar and Mickey McMahon.

The Wife, Her Cat and all the Other Stuff
by Brian Walsh
directed by Kieran Quinn

Andy McGranaghan stars in this new play by Letterkenny playwright Brian Walsh.

The cat was happy, the wife was happy, the neighbours were happy. All is well in the world. Until the cat pees in the shower and it all goes a bit pear shaped!

A funny and touching portrayal of everyday life thrown into confusion that not even the Minister for Finance can sort out!
