The Mount Players next production, A Skull In Connemara by Martin McDonagh, runs from August 15 – 31. If you’re lucky you may still get a ticket!
Featuring dark deeds and daft locals, this razor-sharp dark comedy is set in a quiet Irish village where the dead don’t always stay buried — and neither do the secrets. Each year, gravedigger Mick Dowd is tasked with clearing out old graves to make space for the newly departed. But this year, something — or someone — hits a little too close to home. With biting wit and a mounting sense of unease, the play spirals into a hilariously macabre investigation of small-town gossip, suspicion, and the skeletons we should all keep buried … but where’s the fun in that?
Director Travis Handcock and producer Sonja Prater bring their wealth of experience to the Mountview Theatre and promise patrons a theatrical experience that will both delight and surprise! A brilliant set, special effects and a strong cast of four, it’s one not to be missed.
The Mount Players offer a complimentary sherry on arrival and tea/coffee and biscuits during interval. The bar is open to purchase drinks before and after the show, and during interval.
