SUMMARY:Fourth Wall Laois Theatre Group presents The Country Boy by John Murphy
DESCRIPTION:Fourth Wall Laoise Theatre Group’s production of John Murphy’s play “The Country Boy” is a humorous but poignant love story that examines emigration\, the impact of dreams on reality\, and the challenges of returning home after seeking a better life abroad. \nEddie returns to Ireland with his American wife Julia intent on bringing his brother Curly to America. \nCurly is in love with the lively and beautiful Eileen but feels he must emigrate alone to make his fortune and return in a few years to marry her. \nCurly’s mother Mary Kate’s heart is breaking at the thought of him leaving\, while her husband Tom does not think time is right to hand over the farm to Curly. He does not want Eileen to “fill the house with screetchin’ childer”. \nThe empty stateroom trunk that the American couple brings serves as a powerful metaphor for the emptiness and disappointment that Eddie carries from his years away. \nEddie denigrates his wife as a “fat cow” but Julia rises to a new dignity as she becomes aware of her supportive role during Eddie’s dreams and struggles. \nWill Curly follow in Eddie’s footsteps? Will Eileen be left to wait? Will Eddie and Julia reconcile? Will Tom and Mary Kate be left with an empty nest? \nBook your tickets here or contact our box office on 090 6482042.

SUMMARY:Africa Day Movie Night: Aisha
DESCRIPTION:*FREE EVENT* \nAs part of Africa Day celebrations in Moate\, we will be showing AISHA\, a profoundly moving piece of cinema  that authentically depicts the quiet desperation and loneliness that those living in direct provision in Ireland can experience. \nAisha (Letitia Wright) lives at a Direct Provision Centre in a state of uncertainty; having fled Nigeria from a violent gang that murdered members of her family\, she is desperately trying to find some degree of permanency\, where she and her mother can be reunited and live without fear. As she navigates the complex legal system to seek settlement in Ireland\, she sparks an unlikely friendship with Conor (Josh O’Connor)\, a new guard at the centre. A former prisoner\, Conor’s life experience and calming presence resonate with Aisha\, allowing for a tentative romance to begin. But\, as she continues to live in a state of limbo\, the bond formed between the pair comes under threat. The product of director Frank Berry’s typically extensive research\, Aisha is a powerful critique of a bureaucratic system which compounds the trauma of those seeking refuge. \nDirector: Frank Berry (2022)\nRuntime: 94 mins.\nGenre: Drama\nLanguage: English \nCertificate: 12A \nCheck out the trailer here.

SUMMARY:
DESCRIPTION:★ FREE EVENT ★ \nThe May Film Tour organised by access>CINEMA and the Irish Film Institute to coincide with the Bealtaine Festival\, will come to Tuar Ard on Tuesday May 28th. This year the theme of the Bealtaine is Lust for Life\, based on Iggy Pop’s iconic punk-era song celebrating life’s dreams and ambitions \nThe May Film Tour title\, The Great Escaper is based on a true story. Led by Michael Caine’s impassioned performance\, it tells the story of Bernard Jordan who escaped from his care home to attend the 70th Anniversary of the D-Day Landings in France. We would like to thanks GFD Communications for supporting the screenings of The Great Escaper. The screenings are also possible because of the support of The Arts Council of Ireland. \nIn the summer of 2014\, Bernard Jordan (Michael Caine) made global headlines. He had staged a “great escape” from his care home to join fellow war veterans on a beach in Normandy\, commemorating their fallen comrades at the D-Day Landings 70th anniversary. It was a story that captured the imagination of the world as Bernie embodied the defiant\, “can-do” spirit of a generation that was fast disappearing. But of course\, it wasn’t the whole story. It was an inspirational but sanitised retelling of one man’s need to come to terms with the lasting trauma of war. Bernie’s adventure\, spanning a mere 48 hours\, also marked the culmination of his 60-year marriage to Rene (Glenda Jackson) – THE GREAT ESCAPER celebrates their enduring love but always with an eye to the lessons we might learn from the Greatest Generation. \nDirector: Oliver Parker (2023)\nRuntime: 96 mins.\nGenre: Comedy\, Romance\, War\, Drama\nLanguage: English\nCertificate: 12A
