Decadent Theatre Company Present SOMEONE WHO'LL WATCH OVER ME By Frank McGuinness

Decadent Theatre Company have revisited one of their acclaimed productions, Frank McGuinness's Someone Who'll Watch Over Me in a new staging, directed by Andrew Flynn and opening at the Everyman Theatre on Monday, February 19th, for three performances only, until February 21st as part of a nationwide tour.

Adam, an American doctor, Edward, an Irish journalist, and Michael, an English academic, have little to unite them beyond being human in the same small space. Yet somehow, together, they determine to ward off madness and forestall despair. In the darkness lurk their unseen captors yet, in the cell, there are stories of adventure and love, there is song and laughter and even a surge of writing, cocktail-drinking and movie-making... Inspired by the abduction of Brian Keenan, taken hostage in Lebanon in the 1980s, Someone Who'll Watch Over Me is McGuinness's hymn to the defiant power of the human spirit and the creative imagination.

The production opened in Galway Town Hall Theatre and has a high calibre, award winning, creative team: directed by Andrew Flynn, set design by Owen MacCarthaigh, costume design by Petra Breathnach, composer/sound design by Carl Kennedy, Lx Design by Ciaran Bagnal and starring Diarmuid De Faoite, Dara Devaney and Simon Coury
