Brenda wants Frank to do his exercises, Aoife wants to go to a
wedding of all things, Fiona doesn't know what she wants and Frank
is looking for the gun. A comic new play by Una McKevitt, One Good
Turn brings us a family on the brink who are keeping the show on
the road any which way they can.
"So there's a theory that we all have a fi nite number of
heartbeats. We all have a billion heartbeats to live. Humans, cats,
dogs, rats - all our hearts beat at different speeds but we all
have the same amount. A clock with a billion ticks." Inspired by
the incredible true story of the last greater mouse-eared bat
living in Britain, Vespertilio explores the tender romance between
introverted bat-enthusiast Alan and Josh, the charming young
runaway he meets in an abandoned railway tunnel. As their
relationship develops, these two damaged men might fix one another.
If only a little. Vespertilio is a story of love, loneliness and
bats, an exploration of the difference between merely surviving and
truly living.
A quarrelsome, hot-tempered, and unattractive swordsman falls hopelessly in love with a beautiful woman and woos her for a handsome but slow-witted suitor. A witty and eloquent drama.
