by Rory Mullarkey.
Directed by Professor Adam Ledger.
"This isn't our country. Our country is somewhere else that isn't this place"
Two bombs in one day is a foul coincidence. Don't forget the lightning strike.
A normal day. A person stands in the market square watching the world go by. What happens next verges on the ridiculous.
There's ice cream. Sunshine. Shops. Some dogs. A wedding. Bombs. Candles. Blood. Lightning. Sandwiches. Snipers. Looting. Gunshots. Babies. Actors. Azaleas. Famine. Fountains. Statues. Atrocities. And tanks.(Probably).
Rory Mullarkey's play asks whether things really are getting worse. And if we care.
This amateur production of Pity is presented by arrangement with Casarotto Ramsay and Associates.
