The Cripple of Inishmaan at 2nd Story Theatre

The lonesome Irish west sets the stage for master storyteller Martin McDonagh's poetic and darkly humorous tla eof Cripple Billy: an outcast orphan longing for a better life. When he learns that local islanders are needed to appear in Robert Flaherty's 1934 film, Man of Aran, being shot on a neighboring isle, Billy risks what little he has to seize this once in a lifetime opportunity, one that could finally provide an escape from his halting, isolated and impoverished life.
