HotForTheatre, in association with the Galway International Arts Festival, are delighted to bring Amy Conroy's fiercely funny and intensely moving play Luck Just Kissed You Hello to the Everyman, 8pm, Friday 4th - Saturday 5th November 2016.

Having premiered at Galway International Arts Festival 2015, and received rave reviews, this wonderful play returns for a national tour - visiting Galway, Cork, Ballymun, Newbridge, Belfast, Donegal, Limerick and Dun Laoghaire.

How do you say goodbye to your nemesis, your genesis? Laura returns home for the death of her father, but Laura is now Mark. He, along with Gary and Sullivan, must decide on how he is remembered. They must find a way to forgive, find a way to each other and find a way to recognise themselves again. How can any of us begin to unravel the complexities of our childhood memories and the individual moments we remember and polish as our own? This is a play about what it means to be a man, and the complicated nature and fluidity of masculinity.

HotForTheatre creates theatre that provokes, moves and delights in equal measures. Since 2010 the company has enthralled audiences with shows including I - Alice - I, Eternal Rising of the Sun and Break. Luck Just Kissed You Hello is a beautiful, relentless and fiercely funny play, exploring the delicate strength it takes to be all that is expected of you.

Featuring a wonderful cast of Amy Conroy, Mark Fitzgerald and Will O'Connell, and directed by Caitriona McLaughlin. You won't want to miss Luck Just Kissed You Hello at the Everyman, Friday 4th - Saturday 5th November at 8pm. Tickets, priced at €20, €18 concession or €9 for students, available from www.everymancork.com or from the Box Office, telephone 021 4501 673.
