The Road to Skibbereen

09/10/2017

As part of the Liverpool Irish Festival 2017, Committed returns for two nights at the Irish Centre (formerly St Michaels) in Everton, Liverpool by Falling Doors Theatre.

The year is 1993, the place a catholic ghetto in Belfast. Dan McCrory, republican ex-prisoner,-has been sent to organise the people against a plague of petty crime. Where the police are not welcome, the “Concerned Residents Committee” will become be judge and jury. However, as Dan finds to his cost, Justice must wield a double-edged sword.

*******Bookended by a baby crying and gun shots, it is the humanity of the story that drives Committed.’ – The Skinny Review, 2014.******

*******'Inspired by the Smith’s real life experiences of The Troubles, Committed tells a bold story; not subtle, but certainly nuanced, confronting the audience with uncomfortable truths and offering real food for thought.' - Made Up, Review 2017********

22nd October @ 3pm
26th October @ 8pm

Tickets now available, info on poster below!
