Young fireman Michael Doyle decides to live up to his Irish heritage by joining the IRA. He’s recruited by Costello, the charismatic ‘Big Fellah’, who wants to use Doyle’s brownstone apartment in The Bronx as a safe house for an escaped killer. But it soon becomes clear that someone is leaking information to the FBI... A boisterous and witty story of loyalty, disillusionment and betrayal, set among the Irish American community of New York, Richard Bean’s (Harvest and England People Very Nice) darkly funny play spans three turbulent decades.
