Lunch Time Theatre for Bealtaine Festival, includes a light lunch at 13:00
Rural Ireland meets the Middle East in a plot which follows middle aged farmer Paddy, whose lust for life has long vanished. A trip to the ancient city of Petra in Jordan encourages him to feel a fresh wonder for the world, develop new friendships and begin an exciting love affair…with himself.
Pretending to lose his passport so he can stay longer in Petra, Paddy begins a journey of recovery and renewed enthusiasm for living. How long until responsibilities of old take hold of him again, however? A play about survival, strength and carrying on.
Please arrive before 13:00 in time for lunch (sandwitches) Show starts at 1:30 pm
The role of Paddy will be performed by Cork actor Brendan Dunlea (An Cailin Ciúin, Ros na Rún).
