Local playwright presents play for charity

Catch me if you can, a hilarious new comedy play written by Margaret McKenna Mullan and directed by Eoin Croffy, makes its debut in the Passionfruit Theatre on Thursday February 24 and runs for five consecutive nights until Monday February 28.

This highly entertaining and fast-paced comedy play delivers relentless laughter and promises to be the perfect night out.

Catch me if you can is set in a country cottage in the Midlands. Two spinster sisters, Mary Luby, played by multi talented, award winning actress Ann Hoey, and Greta Luby, played by the playwright herself Margaret McKenna Mullan, find themselves lumbered with their cantankerous ageing Daddy, played by Seamus McKenna, who played a blinder as Jack in Margaret’s first play The Sleeveens. Both sisters have the same agenda - inheritance - but is it enough? How much more can they take?

Paddy the painter, a rogue of the highest order, who gets more than he bargained for while dealing with the Luby sisters, is played superbly by no stranger to the stage, Malcolm Wheelan.

If you wish to be taken right off the planet, Catch me if you can is a must see!

Please ring Passionfruit Theatre on (086 ) 3338457 for all bookings.

Tickets are €12. All proceeds will be donated equally to the following local charities: Console Suicide Awareness, Share a Dream (family fun day ), Westmeath Women’s Refuge, Athlone Community Radio, and the National Council for the Blind (Athlone ).
