"The sectarian prejudices of 1994 Northern Ireland are challenged in an arena even more impassioned than politics: football. This brilliant and piercingly funny one-man play demonstrates how tolerance is possible even in the face of our most entrenched rivalries.... Set amid one of the most contentious and darkest times in Northern Ireland's 'Troubles," A Night in November" follows Kenneth McCallister, a bored Protestant dole clerk as he reluctantly attends a soccer match between Northern Ireland and The Republic ofIreland. There, he's awoken to the biases, racism and bigotry in his own community (and, indeed, in himself), and sets out on a voyage of discovery ,forgiveness, and redemption....Alan Smyth gives an electrifying performance of this compelling, comic, and profoundly hopeful story from Irish playwright Marie Jones"
