Amidst the filth and fury of Dublin 1904, the theatrical event of the century is about to explode... Will the Irish National Theatre of Ireland seize its chance for glory? Fading stars, rebels, whores, romantics and royalty irreverently expose this strange and lurid world. Hours away from realising his life's ambition, William Hayes is a desperate man. During the King's visit to Dublin, the premiere of his epic 'Wooing of Emer' will launch the Irish National Theatre of Ireland. This is a night to change a nation's destiny... unless it all goes horribly wrong.
