Frank Pig Says Hello

Type : Theatre

Twenty-five years from its first groundbreaking tour, Pat McCabe’s ‘Frank Pig Says Hello’ returns in a new production that brilliantly captures the legendary original. Desperately funny and yet deeply tragic, ‘Frank Pig Says Hello’ is one of
the great classics of modern Irish theatre. It tells the story of Francie Brady growing up in a small Irish town in the 1960s and his descent towards a brutal act that shocks his community.

The play distils Francie’s infamous narrative into a riveting evening of pure, outstanding theatre, and is regarded as the most vivid, hilarious and heartbreaking evocations ever seen on stage of an Irish childhood gone wrong. From the opening live trumpet notes over an image of a happy boy acting the piglet, to the breathtaking depiction of a dreadful murder, this is theatre at its most entertaining and gripping best.
