And our new show is ....Paddy's Band
Set in rural Ireland in late 1950s. Paddy (a farmers son) has decided to put together a rock’n’roll band made up of a motley crew of local boyo’s much to the dismay of his Mother and amusement of his Father. The son of the local gentry Fredrick has been foisted on the band by circumstances beyond their control. Maura (Paddy’s man mad sister) sets her sights on Fredrick much to his horror. When the local parish priest Fr. Magillacuddy hears about this Rock’n’Roll band his wrath knows no bounds as he descends on the farm to confront Paddy about leading the young people of the village astray, with hilarious results. Throw in a vicious Ceili Band a smarmy talent show host and a very opinionated tailor and it’s total mayhem.
Featuring music from Dion and the Belmonts, Eddie Cochran, The Drifters and Wanda Jackson to mention just a few. All music live on stage.
Bring your dancing shoes folks this show will blow the roof off The Presentation Centre.
From May 19th- 23rd Presentation Centre, Enniscorthy.
