Someone Who'll Watch Over Me By Frank McGuinness

Someone Who'll Watch Over Me By Frank McGuinness: Red Brick Productions

The play focuses on the trials and tribulations of an Irishman, an Englishman and an American, who are kidnapped and held hostage by unseen Arabs in Lebanon.

As the three men strive for survival they also strive to overcome their personal and nationalistic differences. Related to this is each individual's own attempt to maintain sanity under the watchful eye of both captors and supposed comrades.

At times the dramatic dialogue reaches a level of Beckettian absurdity as even the audience is unable to draw a distinction between the characters' insanity and humour.
