The Good Crank

This event has ended

Smock Alley Theatre, Tuesday 20th May - Saturday 24th May

Kitty Clog is an aging woman who is determined not to go quietly into that good night. Lots of attitude, a motley crew of supporting characters (all played by star of Father Ted and Fair City Rose Henderson). Kitty takes us with her on a rollercoaster journey to find her lost man.
