There will be blood...lots and lots and lots of it
The fourth season of The Rep’s Off-Ramp series begins with a bloody, brutally funny bang! Monty Python meets Quentin Tarantino in this brazen and unapologetic, bitterly blood curdling and breathtakingly funny farce about rogue Irish terrorist ‘Mad Padraic’ and the one thing he loves more than anything else in the world, his little black cat.
But on a lonely Inishmore island road, someone has run over Wee Thomas. Was it an accident? Padraic’s gonna want to know.
The Washington Post called The Lieutenant of Inishmore “perversely amusing and alarmingly real”, while the New York Observer added “this is the first farce about terrorism in the history of the whole wide beautiful world…Its singular playwright has us laughing at our blackest fears.”
Don’t miss the St. Louis premiere of The Lieutenant of Inishmore, Martin McDonagh’s Olivier Award winner for Best Comedy.
Off-Ramp at the Grandel Theatre, September 17–October 12, 2008
