World Premiere
A New Play by Owen McCafferty
Written and directed by Owen McCafferty Performed by Patrick
O’Kane
“ you should have wired me off / you should have let
me know that at some stage things could go a bit fuckin wrong."
What happens when the people you need to ask questions of
aren’t there anymore? Haunted by his past and present
Kevin Toner has to face his demons time and time and time
again.
Lyrical, hard hitting with real emotional punch Cold Comfort
is a new play by Owen McCafferty, recent recipient of the
John Whiting Award for new theatre writing, Evening Standard
Charles Wintour Award for new play-writing and the Meyer-Whitworth
award for best new play for his brilliant portrait of Belfast,
Scenes From The Big Picture. This is the first time that any
playwright has won all three awards in one year.
“McCafferty is a writer of depth and subtlety, as well
as palpable humanity and he constantly confounds the audiences
expectations. His characterisation is detailed, vivid and
unpredictable”". The Daily Telegraph
Tickets £9.00/£6.00 available from Belfast
