Two strangers meet in an Irish pub for the first and last time.
Play FIVE in our '18-19 Season for Scoundrels.
Runs May 16 - June 2nd, 2019
In a Belfast pub run by Polish immigrant Robert, bar patron Jimmy nurses a pint, waiting. Jimmy is agitated, and when Ian enters, we learn why: 36 years ago, when both men were teenagers, Ian lobbed a bomb into this same pub, killing six men suspected of being IRA sympathizers—including Jimmy’s father.
Owen McCafferty has woven together a play that unfolds with an intensity that, in the intimate studio theater of the Scoundrel & Scamp, will immerse us into the world of 'The Troubles'. Quietly raises powerful questions about redemption and and whether even decades later, one can forgive the unforgivable.
