Loco & Reckless presents
The Man In The Woman’s Shoes & I Hear You and Rejoice
Two one man shows written and performed by Mikel Murfi
Friday 7th December
The Man In The Woman’s Shoes
Set in October 1978 – Pope John Paul the First is not long dead, autumn is closing in and Pat Farnon has ‘some business’ to do in town. The Man In The Woman’s Shoes follows Pat Farnon as he walks to town and back again. It is a beautifully observed piece, utterly simple and has been widely praised. The show is funny, tender and at times downright daft.
Saturday 8th December
I Hear You And Rejoice
Late in his life, Pat Farnon, a cobbler and all-round contented man, embarks on a journey he had not quite planned and finds that every twist in the road can bring its own surprises.
