Lafferty's Wake

by Susan Turlish

Audience participation comedy with music / 4m, 3f / Interior / Our darlin' wild rover Charlie Lafferty is being waked in grand style in his home away from home, the local pub. The audience joins Charlie's widow, his sweet daughter and bumbling son in law, the parish priest and the savvy innkeeper as they celebrate the life and times of ramblin', gamblin' Lafferty. Two hours of sheer fun replete with jokes, jigs, stories and songs including such old favorites as "Molly Malone," "Whiskey in the Jar" and "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling" guarantee a festive, audience pleasing frolic.
