Conor McPherson’s The Night Alive is coming to New York City! Starring former boxing champion, John Duddy in the lead role. Also in the cast is Haydn Harvey, Thomas Shuman and father-daughter duo of established British actor Lloyd Peters and Molly Ehrenberg-Peters. Directed by Kathy Gail MacGowan.

McPherson’s hero, Tommy, is a middle-aged loner who has lost all hope; a Jack of all trades and master of none. He lives in his Uncle Maurice’s bedsit in North Dublin, scraping by through life with his loyal companion Doc.

Life takes an unexpected turn when Tommy meets Aimee and decides to save her from a dark path. As their worlds collide, both sense a glimmer that life could get better after all. This play examines loneliness and the search for human connection all with a helping of classic Dublin humour.

The Night Alive is a barrage of blood, tears and battered sausage; a journey of five lost souls scored by Marvin Gaye’s hit song ‘What’s Going On.’
