Michael Scott presents
theAtre
the matchmaker
Saturday 29 September
Time: 8pm Price: €20/18 conc.
The Matchmaker starring Jon Kenny and
Mary McEvoy is based on the novella ‘Letters
of a County Matchmaker’ by John B. Keane,
one of our most celebrated writers. The play
follows the efforts of Dicky Mick Dicky
O'Connor to make matches for the lonely and
lovelorn. Using his inimitable way with words
and his sense of ‘devilment’ and wit, Keane
delves into the longings, hungers, fears and
foibles of this collection of lonely county
people and creates a marvelously colourful
world, taking us back to a simpler time, when
phones were few and far between and the
only web was one left behind by spiders.
"Great performances by two great actors… standing ovation". Joe Duffy -RTE
"As directed by Michael Scott, Mary McEvoy and Jon Kenny provide everything
Keane could have desired" The Irish Times

An outbreak of dog flu has spread through the city of
Megasaki, Japan, and Mayor Kobayashi has demanded all
dogs to be sent to Trash Island. On the island, a young
boy named Atari sets out to find his lost dog Spots, with
the help of five other dogs... with many obstacles along
the way.
“Expect to wag your metaphorical tail in delight over Wes Anderson's new animated
joyride into a canine universe with political undercurrents sure to
strike a human chord.”
