Written and performed by Mikel Murfi

In I Hear You and Rejoice and The Man in the Woman’s Shoes, one of Ireland’s most respected performers creates the characters of a bustling Irish town and its hinterland, capturing their vibrancy through snapshots of its two most disparate residents: the bashful, solitary cobbler, Pat Farnon, and the indomitable football manager, Kitsy Rainey.

Like all good companions, each production stands perfectly on its own—but together, they reveal a tender portrait of community and compassion.

THE MAN IN THE WOMAN'S SHOES

Meet Pat

Just outside of town, cobbler Pat Farnon lives on his own, contentedly aging in the cottage in which he was reared. Join him as he walks the five miles into his 'metropolis,' populated with no-necked water diviners, sporting savants, loudmouths, and preachers.
