Victors Dung
This highly acclaimed multi award winning and very funny play by Corn Mill Theatre and Arts Centre returns by popular demand to St. Brigids Hall Theatre on Fri. 17th. Feb. Written and directed by Seamus O'Rourke who also plays the leading role is the comic tale of Victor Maguire, a crude, vulgar, abrupt, and un-PC Cavan farmer. It is set in Victors farm yard with its own dung heap, outdoor toilet and rather poor broadband reception.
