Welcome to Ballygweeha, the windiest town in Ireland!
The houses teeter over, the locals walk at an angle into the gusts and no-one’s ever properly lit a fire. When prodigal son Luc Torney returns after ten years to save the town from ruin with a windfarm scheme, he is hailed as a hero. But town layabout Jacinta Nangle smells a rat. A cast of gurriers, property developers and mammies collide in this modern Irish satire on corruption and national character.
The Windstealers, written by Jane Madden and directed by Anushka Senanayake will be a multi-disciplinary, robustly physical production with elements of magic realism and political satire. Imagine “It’s Martin’s Live” meets Ibsen.
Are you blown away?
