is the latest work by playwright and broadcaster Tommy Marren and it’s coming to Visual.
The shows take place on Friday and Saturday 22-23 November for two unforgettable nights of non-stop laugher.
Following on from his previous hit comedies , and , Tommy Marren promises 300 laughs in two hours in this fast-moving comedy.
The play is set over two days in the home of Matt and Maureen Corcoran. They live with their two ‘mature’ bachelor sons Pat and Joe, and Maureen decides it’s time they both moved out. She spots an advertisement in the , where two equally ‘mature’ ladies are in search of husbands and so she puts in place her plan to find love for her sons.
What Maureen doesn’t know is that neither Pat nor Joe have any intentions of settling down or moving out and the boys hatch their own plan to put the two ladies ‘off the scent’.
Get ready for wall-to-wall comedy with rare diseases, tongue twisters, a missing wife, an overdue eternity ring, a ‘dodgy’ sponge cake and news of an old flame all adding to the mayhem and madness, not to mention the ‘sting in the tail’ at the very end!
The question is: will matches be struck or could someone get burned by an old flame?
See the hilarious by Tommy Marren at Visual, Carlow on Friday and Saturday 22-23 November at 8pm nightly. Early booking is strongly advised.
