The Lieutenant of Inishmore: Set in 1993 in County Galway on the rocky island of Inishmore, off the coast of Ireland. Padraic is a terrorist with no feeling for those he kills, yet has an obsessive attachment to Thomas, his beloved cat. But someone has murdered poor wee Thomas. Was it an accident or an execution? Either way, the death must be concealed before 'Mad Padraic' returns from a stint of torture and bombing. Otherwise the recriminations will be horrifying.

The play, directed by Wilson Milam, features Jeff Binder (James), Kerry Condon (Mairead), Andrew Connolly (Christy), Dashiell Eaves (Joey), Peter Gerety (Donny), Domhnall Gleeson (Davey), Brian d�Arcy James (Brendan) and David Wilmot (Padraic).
