the shadow
of a gunman
3 May — 6 June
…what danger can there be in being the
shadow of a gunman?
In Sean O’Casey’s vibrant and
poignant classic comedy, Donal
Davoren wrestles with his poetry as he
struggles to find peace in a crowded
Dublin tenement.
Donal’s neighbours believe he is a
gunman on the run. The way Minnie
Powell looks at him encourages him to
play along. However, when the city is
placed under curfew, his fantasy starts
to feel uncomfortably real.
