Monsters, Dinosaurs, Ghosts

OVERVIEW

  • Playwright

    Jimmy McAleavey 

  • Synopsis

    Nig and Wee Joe used to be soldiers. They have done monstrous things. Now nobody is listening and nobody gives a fuck either way. Their lives are full of cognitive behavioural therapy, valium and guilt. One last operation offers the chance to bring meaning to their actions. It also brings them face to face with ‘L’, who represents the new and unpredictable reality of war in Northern Ireland.
