St Patrick’s Drama Group present Them

St Patrick’s Drama Group will stage Tom Coffey’s Them in Scoil Padraig National Scoil, Altamount Street, Westport from Tuesday January 6 to Saturday January 10. This is a powerful production and certainly, an emotive one. This unique play demonstrates a sharp contrast between comedy and tragedy within its three acts. Them was first produced in 1963. It is set in 1960s Ireland, in a time when those with intellectual disabilities were seldom accepted as special people. Like the character of Johnsie in Tom Coffey’s play, who was an embarrassment and almost a nuisance to some, and simply misunderstood by others, these special people were not to be seen or spoken about.
