Talking cobblers: Longford audience set to enjoy 'The Man in the Woman’s Shoes'
See 'The Man in the Woman’s Shoes' at Longford’s Backstage Theatre on Wednesday, April 1 at 8pm
Just outside of town, cobbler Pat Farnon lives on his own, contentedly aging in the cottage in which he was reared.
Join him as he walks the five miles into his “metropolis,” populated with no-necked water diviners, sporting savants, loudmouths, and preachers.
Created with the support of the Sligo County Council Arts Service and The Hawk’s Well Theatre, Sligo as part of the Bealtaine Festival for Creativity in older people, The Man In The Woman’s Shoes has toured extensively in Ireland since 2012. It has played twice in NYC at the Irish Arts Centre in Manhattan. It ran for three weeks at The Tricycle Theatre, London in 2016 to full houses.
Tickets for The Man in the Woman’s Shoes at Longford’s Backstage Theatre on Wednesday, April 1 at 8pm are available on 043 33 47888 or backstage.ie
