The 72nd Ballyshannon Drama Society opens tonight, March 15th, with ‘A Whistle In The Dark’ by Corn Mill Theatre.
The Corn Mill Theatre Group present their festival production of ‘A Whistle in the Dark’ by Tom Murphy in the Corn Mill Theatre on Saturday 1st March at 8pm.
Michael Carney is an Irishman living in Coventry with his young wife, Betty. He has given lodgings to his three brothers as they establish themselves there, but far from showing him gratitude for his generosity, he is treated with derision and terrorised in his own home. One of Ireland’s greatest playwrights, Tom Murphy’s A Whistle in the Dark is a powerful portrayal of tribal violence and the devastation it brings in its wake. It remains Murphy’s best known and most performed play to this day.
