BELLTABLE is hosting a night of drama and live music described as something very different for the theatre.
“At the Iron Annie Cabaret, expect all the things that might happen when you combine an unstable relationship with bootlegging booze and selling drugs.”
The show is based on the debut novel from Dundalk writer Luke Cassidy published by Bloomsbury Books. Luke is a restless and enterprising sort with a love of craic. He obtained funding from the Arts Council of Ireland to produce the Iron Annie Cabaret described as Reservoir Dogs meets Thelma & Louise meets the Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Iron Annie Cabaret tells the tale of Aoife, a force of a woman from Dundalk, and her obsessive love for the charismatic Annie. Directed by Peter Moreton, Aoife is brought to life by Eleanor McLoughlin in this unique production. The Iron Annie Cabaret will also feature original music inspired by the book and composed and performed live by folk duo The Dandelion Few and border-punk quartet False Slag.
Iron Annie Cabaret happens at Belltable this Saturday November 6 at 8pm. www.limetreetheatre.ie for tickets.
