Keenan-inspired play for Solstice

Blackwater Projects this week presents Frank McGuinness' Tony Award-nominated play 'Someone Who'll Watch Over Me' at Solstice Arts Centre. The play stages tomorrow (Thursday) 8th October, and Friday. In the remarkable play, Frank McGuinness explores the difficult relationships among an Irishman, an American and an Englishman taken hostage in Lebanon during the early 1990s. With nowhere to hide and only each other to turn to, the three men ultimately find the support they must cling to in order to survive. Sometimes hilarious, often moving, always compelling, 'Someone Who'll Watch Over Me' is a celebration of the resilience of the human spirit. Inspired by events surrounding Brian Keenan's abduction in Beirut, this timeless classic has been described as 'heart-rendingly compassionate' as well as 'uproariously funny', and is an absolute must-see for fans of the play and first-timers alike. Tickets are €18 and are available from Solstice Arts Centre Office on (046) 909 2300 or online at www.solsticeartscentre.ie.
