On a lonely road on the island of Inishmore, someone killed an Irish Liberation Army enforcer's cat. Padraic may be a terrorist, but he loves that cat more than life itself, and someone is going to pay for kitty's execution... just as soon as Padraic returns from his stint of torture and chip-shop bombing in Northern Ireland. This witty, ironic, and wild look at the hyprocrisy of violence escalates from mayhem to a hilarious surprise ending that leaves audiences gasping for breath. If you loved Sweeney Todd, you won't want to miss The Lieutenant of Inishmore.

By Martin McDonagh
Directed by Jeremy Skidmore
