Description

The first ever stage play written about the NI Troubles.

The strong friendship between Protestant Danny and Catholic Pat forged in childhood and the close bonds between their families come under strain as religious divisions tear 1960’s East Belfast apart. Danny’s marriage plans and Pat’s relationship with his pregnant girlfriend are shattered by violence.

'... an assertion of precious human values under direct and terrible siege, that there is not doubt at all that the play itself charts an historic degradation. ' (Irish News)

‘…very funny, very sad, and totally riveting…. It is not too often that a play can bring a tear to my eye, but Stewart Love's "Me Oul Segocia" did just that…. How many (plays of the 1960’s) will be revived.... one that will not be forgotten is Stewart Love's "Me Oul Segocia".' (Belfast Telegraph)

Tues 12th – Sat 16th November, 19.30. Wednesday and Saturday matinees at 14.00. £16.00 and £14.00.
