Wandering Star present

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?’
‘That’s different, we’re jumpin’ off buildin’s 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. That’s 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 bird’s eye view, if you will.

Directed by Katrina Foley.

Starring Aisling McCarthy, Sinéad Donnelly, Sinéad McGee
and Bláithín MacGabhann

This play contains strong language and some mild violence.

Wandering Star are the team that brought you Fleabag by Phoebe Waller-Bridge (2015), Debris by Dennis Kelly (2016), After You Get What You Want by Emily Hutt and Bedbound by Enda Walsh (2017).

Tickets: €15, €12 concessions.

Administration fee on phone and online bookings.
