ShedMan
A witty and poignant solo play by Keith Singleton about loneliness, community and belonging set in Ireland.
ShedMan is a cautionary and comedic tale that is guaranteed (there are no guarantees in life!) to have you laughing away goodo and maybe SHEDing a few tears.
It tells the tale of John Courtesy. John was born on the island of Ireland, which is a great start in life as it is such a friendly place. But then why is John so lonely? Why is John, a friendly sort who is no trouble to no one, contemplating moving up a mountain so he can escape all that world famous friendliness?
ShedMan is written and performed by Keith Singleton (Crookhaven / The Pillowman) who took several trips to the Holywood Men’s Shed to research the play.
ShedMan is directed by Award Winning Director Patrick J. O’ Reilly (The Man Who Fell To Pieces / Rhino).
ShedMan was originally funded by the Arts Council of Northern Ireland and The MAC.
