Affluence - Bardic Theatre

JOHN HEWITT INTERNATIONAL SUMMER SCHOOL 2013 EVENT

Set against the backdrop of a tiny island off the Co Down coast comes “Affluence”, from one of Northern Ireland’s leading amateur companies, The Bardic Theatre. This laugh-a-minute comedy, returning to the Market Place in response to popular demand, takes a light-hearted look at some issues surrounding the island’s Catholic and Protestant communities.

The lack of flushing toilets in their respective reading rooms causes problems. Having lobbied their curates for years, the toilets arrive on the same day. However, when a man from ‘The Department’ arrives and informs them they will have to share the same sewage pipes, things begin to happen!
