SOLD OUT!

A story of unrequited love, between a man and his bicycle!

Hilarious and visually stunning, The Third Policeman is a murder mystery about a rural police force, set in an Irish village.

Fast moving, funny and sinister The Third Policeman is a fable of eternal grief and a tender love story all in one.

A surreal vision of eternity.

The Third Policeman is an adaptation of Flann O'Brien's celebrated novel.

There will be a post-show discussion with Jocelyn Clarke (writer), Niall Henry (director) and members of the cast on Tuesday 24 February.

"Fantastic production… truly impressive". The Sunday Independent

"Blue Raincoat Theatre Company's seamless adaptation somehow manages to preserve the wit of O'Brien's original, at the same time embraces the novel's dark heart." **** The Metro
