Comedian, writer, entertainer and musician Paddy Cullivan makes a highly anticipated return to The Balor, Ballybofey next week with his brand new show ‘I Can’t Believe It’s Not Ireland’.
A firm favourite of Balor audiences thanks to fascinating and entertaining shows such as ‘The Murder of Michael Collins’ and ‘The Murder of Wolfe Tone’, Paddy applies the same cutting edge analysis and acerbic humour to the national question.
‘I Can’t Believe It’s Not Ireland’ takes the audience on a hilariously insightful journey through the history of partition and the Ireland of the future.
Imagine this, it’s 2023, the people have spoken on both sides of the border and Ireland is a brand new 32 county country.
There’s a new flag, a new anthem and there’s even a new capital Unionists holiday in the South discovering the imperial joys of ‘Royal’ Dublin.
Southerners holiday in the North discovering there’s more to Ulster than the retail outlets of Newry and the Titanic Museum.
It’s a new country where everything is on the table and the possibilities are exciting and endless.
Leave all your preconceptions at the door.
It’s not a United Ireland.
It’s not an ‘agreed’ Ireland or a ‘shared’ Ireland.
It’s not even a new Ireland, it’s simply ‘I Can’t Believe It’s Not Ireland!’.
Now we just have to get there.
Paddy Cullivan’s ‘I Can’t Believe It’s Not Ireland’ is at The Balor, Ballybofey on Thursday July 18 at 8pm.
Tickets are €15 available from The Balor Box Office on 0749131840 or online at www.balorartscentre.com
