23rd of April 1921. Midnight.
Three men, masked and heavily armed,
break down the door of Mr. Padraic Carroll.
But they're not there for him...They've come for his daughter.
Peg Carroll: the fraterniser, the alleged 'horizontal collaborator'
of the Crown Forces, about to be dragged from her bed,
and scalped by her own people for charges never brought,
and a crime never proven...
Devised by the company inspired by true stories, THE MIDNIGHT SCALPING OF PEG CARROLL explores love, loss and patriarchal violence throughout Irish history and today, all set against the dramatic backdrop of the Irish War of Independence.
For more information, please see Press Release & Poster attached & Promo Trailer link below
THE MIDNIGHT SCALPING OF PEG CARROLL opens Thursday 4th May @ 8pm at Droichead Arts Centre, Drogheda - with performances on the evening of 5th & 6th May @ 8pm & Matinee on 5th May @ 12pm
