BEWLEY’S CAFÉ THEATRE with the Corp Ensemble is proud to present…
A CHRISTMAS VISIT​
​by Stewart Roche
​
Sparks fly in this heartwarming story about two people who missed an opportunity; a moving story about the one who got away and how some of us can move on while others stay in place. A Christmas Visit charts the journey of two lost souls trying to find their place in the world and rediscovering one another along the way.
Following a hugely successful run in 2023, we are delighted to bring to this funny and tender new play by award-winning writer Stewart Roche (Wringer, The Fetch Wilson, The Twenty Club) to our audience.
‘Roche’s work always has a generous touch of the heart warming, a dash of the macabre, whilst enriching the ordinary with traces of the sublime... the rapport between Conroy and Murray is excellent’
