Up-and-coming actor Cameron M cKendrick plays Thomas McGill\, a marginalised member of a small community town in Ireland in this gripping one-man show of wit\, weirdness and wond er.\n\n"Sin has become our religion\," mourns Thomas. "Greed is our commun ion and evil is our God.” The self-proclaimed man of God is tormented by the behaviour of his neighbours in Inishfree\, and is on a quest for rede mption. He knows that jovial Dwain Flynn is a miserable drunk\, that Timmy O'Leary enslaves his lovely mother\, and that sweet Mrs Cleary is a blasp hemous flirt\, so what is he to do?\n\nAs the plot unfolds\, the audience witness Thomas’ re-telling\, or rather\, re-making of a very significant day in the town. Sifting through his archived tape recordings of conversa tions and arguments with his peers\, Thomas edits their stories\, playing every character in the town. Directed by Fletcher\, with musical direction by Luke Thomas\, the staging sees the sometimes bodiless voices of the to wnsfolk haunt Thomas\, engulfing the central character in his obsessive st ory telling.\n\nOf his role McKendrick says “After reading Misterman mys elf I thought it'd be stupid to turn down the opportunity of playing this unpredictable and misunderstood character. You feel for him and then you ’re disturbed by him.”\n\nDirector Roisin Fletcher says “I saw an ea rly production of the play starring Cillian Murphy\, which had a massive i mpact on me\, so I was eager to bring this new writing to more people.”\ n\nRoisin Fletcher and Luke Thomas successfully produced\, directed and mu sically directed Scadán as part of the Liverpool Irish Festival 2016 at t he Invisible Wind Factory\, described as "the shining jewel of the festiva l"  by Getintothis.co.uk.\n\nA story of right and wrong\, religion and re demption\, Misterman will run for two consecutive nights at Invisible Wind Factory\, from 31 May - 1 June. Tickets are £9 / £7.50 for concessions\ , and available from: http://misterman.brownpapertickets.com/\n\nTickets i nclude free food on arrival\, created by the very talented chef Brendan Cu rtis-Burton\, who recently catered the sell-out event Eat Me / Preach at I nvisible Wind Factory\, 3 Regent Road\, Liverpool\, L3 7BX.\n\nSee the tra iler: https://youtu.be/vkHsYFOP9EM ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.artinliverpool.com/wp-content/upload s/2017/05/Misterman-RGB-A5-Screen-01-e1495113659885.jpg CATEGORIES:Performance LOCATION:Invisible Wind Factory\, 3 Regent Road\, Liverpool\, L3 7DS\, Live rpool\, United Kingdom GEO:53.419644;-3.000075 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=3 Regent Road\, Liverpool\, L3 7DS\, Liverpool\, United Kingdom;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Invisible Wind Factory:geo:53.419644,-3.000075 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:Europe/London X-LIC-LOCATION:Europe/London BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20170326T020000 TZOFFSETFROM:+0000 TZOFFSETTO:+0100 TZNAME:BST END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
