Lex Talionis
A Tale of Vengeance and Feathers
by Liam Heylin
As part of the Cork Midsummer Festival, Wandering Star presents
Lex Talionis (A Tale of Vengeance & Feathers), a new play by Liam Heylin whose previous work includes Love, Peace & Robbery and Hung Juror.
If I told ya to jump off a buildin would ya?
Thats different, were jumpin off buildins all day long!
Hugh is an older rook with chicks on the way. Mooney is a younger rook whose new friend Max is not what she seems. Dónie is a magpie, and he is bad news. When someone is murdered all hell breaks loose. There will be vengeance. Thats what the weird Latin title is about the law of retaliation, an eye for an eye.
This is another play from the seriously funny Liam Heylin about savage craic on the streets of Cork City. A birds eye view, if you will.
Directed by Katrina Foley.
Starring Aisling McCarthy, Sinéad Donnelly, Sinéad McGee
and Bláithín MacGabhann
