Speaking about the show, performer and producer Michael Ryan says: “The types of characters we portray in this comedy theatre sketch can be found in almost every community in the country – and we are looking forward to performing in Limerick as this show is Irish humour at it’s very best and promises lots of belly-laughs, quips and characters that will resonate with the audience.”

The hilarious comedy that runs for 1 hour and 20 minutes is performed by Sean and Michael that bringing characters that can be found in every rural community in the country to life. Performed with minimal set and supported by a rich soundscape, The Parish is highly entertaining, accessible theatre in its purest form.
