DRAMA DELUGE AT THE MARKET PLACE

Riveting drama continues to dominate the stage at Armagh’s Market Place Theatre.

On Tuesday 21 November, Searchlight Theatre Company present their award winning and critically acclaimed production based on the brilliantly funny classic apologist book by CS Lewis, ‘The Screwtape Letters’. This dazzling production gives a witty insight into the frailties of human nature with a telling accuracy. Screwtape’s aim is to mentor his junior devil Wormwood into tempting their ‘subject’ into a secure damnation. Don’t miss this sparkling adaptation full of perception and mockery and truth. A brilliantly funny masterpiece that received 5 star reviews at The Edinburgh Festival.

Then on Friday 24 November, it’s the turn of Rise Productions and their acclaimed production of ‘The Good Father’. It’s New Year’s Eve, at a house party like any other, in a suburb like any other. Two very different strangers meet, each looking for a new start and to shake off the disappointments of the past. But champagne, cheap lager and their chance encounter leads this unlikely couple to an unplanned pregnancy. Against all odds, can they make their newfound family a success?

Winner of the Stewart Parker Award, this heartfelt, moving drama charts their journey of love, loss, and redemption. The multi award-winning Rise Productions returns to The Market Place with this touching story celebrating the triumph of hope. This performance contains adult themes and is recommended for age 15+.
