4 STARS Critics' Choice "Jaw-dropping laughs... a big meaty subject... cracking performances" Sunday Times 12 Sep 2010. More reviews.
Young fireman Michael Doyle decides to live up to his Irish heritage by joining the IRA. He's recruited by Costello, the charismatic "Big Fellah", who wants to use Doyle's brownstone apartment in The Bronx as a safe house for an escaped killer. But it soon becomes clear that someone is leaking information to the FBI...
Set among Irish Americans in New York, Richard Bean's dark, glinting, funny play spans three turbulent decades.
A boisterous and witty story of loyalty, disillusion and betrayal.
