The Man in the Woman’s Shoes

by Mikel Murfi

Just outside of town, cobbler Pat Farnon lives on his own, contentedly aging in the cottage in which he was reared. Join him as he walks the five miles into his “metropolis,” populated with no-necked water diviners, sporting savants, loudmouths, and preachers.

The show was originally created with Sligo County Council Arts Service and The Hawk’s Well Theatre, Sligo as part of the Bealtaine Festival 2012. In 2015 it toured to Manhattan and Philadelphia as well as a sold out, three week run at the Abbey Theatre on the Peacock stage in Dublin. In 2016 it returned to NYC and ran for three weeks at the Tricycle Theatre in London to standing ovations.

Since 2013, more than 13,000 tickets have been sold at Pavilion Theatre for The Man in the Woman's Shoes, I Hear You and Rejoice and The Mysterious Case of Kitsy Rainey.
