Shoestring Theatre Company - 'Trad'

Play: 'Trad'
Author: Mark Doherty

Synopsis of Play
The unmarried son has just let it slip that, some 70 years earlier; there was an 'incident' that resulted in the birth of a child. And 'Da' retracting one foot from the grave is determined to find his kin. A hilarious, if ultimately poignant, fable that takes us on an unlikely road trip aimed at connecting past and future.

If using Sat Nav, be careful when inputting. There are at least three Ballyduffs in County Waterford. In particular, there is a village called Ballyduff about five miles from Waterford City. This is not us! Coordinates 52° 08' 51" N, 8° 03' 06" W will get you pretty near the correct Ballyduff! more
