Welcome to Ireland

Meltdown of an Irish Tour Guide

Written & Performed by Jack WalshKillinaskully (Jimmy), Kin, Vikings Valhalla, The Northman.

A 70 minute whirlwind of 40 characters, including landlords, tourists, historical figures and even a moonwalking squirrel, as a tour guide selling Ireland as a wonderful land of ceol, cailíní agus craic struggles to keep a roof over his head as the rent goes up and up, with chaotic and hilarious results. The life of an actor, selling Ireland as a tour guide and a close shave with homelessness. I’ve put it all into this show, full of madcap characters, lots of humour and a lot of truth. Ireland without the plámás.

Everyone in the Dáil  should see it.

Directed by: Halina Froudist
Stage Manager: Marella Boschi
Production Manager: Marie Tierney
Poster Design: Kayde Middleton
Voiceovers: Deirdre Molloy
