MOLL Returns

Sligo Drama Circle is delighted to announce the return of their huge hit comedy from 2013, MOLL. This John B. Keane classic comedy received hugely positive feedback from audiences when it last played the Hawk’s Well Theatre in November 2013. MOLL is set to return to the Hawk’s Well this July and it should appeal to visitors and locals alike. Whether you’ve seen it before or missed out on it last time, you’ll want to make sure you have your seats booked this time around.

The Parish Priest, Canon Pratt, and his two curates Fr. Brest and Fr. Loran have resided together in the parish presbytery in relative happiness for years. However, the previous housekeeper has passed away and the priests have to find a new one. This is no easy task as Fr. Brest remarks that “when a presbytery gets a new housekeeper it becomes like a country that gets a change of government”.

Back Row: Hugh O’ Neill (Bishop), Gerry Ryan (Canon Pratt), Sally Browne (Bridgie), Lionel Gallagher (Ulick), Máire Hynes (Mrs. Andover)

Front Row: Angela Maguire (Moll), Micki Murray (Fr. Brest), Brian Mc Gauran (Fr. Loran)

After Moll Kettle is given the job, much to the dismay of Fr. Brest, life in the presbytery will never be the same again. However, it’s Moll’s suggestion of starting Bingo to fund the new school that upsets the curates enough to do some investigating into Moll’s past and to consider pleading their case to the Bishop. “Moll” promises a great night’s entertainment full of laughter.

Featuring a full original cast and crew, booking for MOLL in the Hawk’s Well Theatre from July 7th – 11th is now open HERE
