The Madame Macadam Travelling Theatre
T0513758926
Set in Donegal in 1943, this comic melodrama explores what happens when a travelling group of English actors run out of petrol in an Irish town. The troupe are stranded unless they can get hold of some black market petrol; in their search we encounter a power-crazed Army Reserve Sergeant, love-struck teenagers, a doctored greyhound and a dodgy member of the Garda.
