Pat McCabe is one of Ireland’s most daringly original writers. 'Frank Pig Says Hello' is his stage version of his highly acclaimed novel 'The Butcher Boy' which was shortlisted for the Booker Prize.

Set in 1960s rural Ireland, it is a poignant and provocative journey into the heart and mind of Francie Brady, a young man driven beyond the boundaries of his mental and emotional health.

Over 30 characters are played by two versatile actors, Patrick McBrearty and Stefan Dunbar, in a powerfully evocative and rewarding theatre experience. Directed by David Grant.
