KING with Pat Kinevane – Fishamble: The New Play Company
|
KING tells the story of Luther, a man from Cork named in honour of his Granny Bee Baw’s hero, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Luther only leaves his apartment for essential journeys, and to perform as an Elvis impersonator. The play explores prejudice, privilege, and resilience, as Luther struggles to live life to the full.
Fishamble and Pat Kinevane have previously collaborated on FORGOTTEN, SILENT, UNDERNEATH, and BEFORE, winning major international awards including the Olivier. They have been called EXTRAORDINARY (New York Times), DAZZLING (Guardian), and MESMERISING (Sydney Morning Herald). Now, under the direction of Jim Culleton, and with music by Denis Clohessy, they return with this very special fifth solo play. Note: Latecomers cannot be admitted. |
This production was developed with the support of Nasc Network Commission and Georganne Aldrich Heller.
