Three people locked in a Catholic Church for the night: An ex-circus strongman who prays to the Sanctuary Lamp for strength, a run-away waif haunted by her past and an Irish blackguard...
Tom Murphy directs this revival of his own play for b*spoke theatre company. Described by the Guardian as one of Irish Theatre's "proudest possessions", Murphy has been a major influence on a generation of Irish Theatre makers and his distinctive voice remains a major force in the contemporary repertory.

The Sunday Independent called it a, "Stunning revival" while the Irish Independent described it as, "Mesmeric."

The design for the production will be by Monica Frawley with lighting by Ben Ormerod.
