Last day in Listowel

Just kind of acted like locals today - went to the fruit market and grocery store, found a store to buy some towels. Went for a walk. Chris, Colleen and Adam arrived and we attended the last night of pub theater at John B's. Loved it that Billy Keane and Jim (a musician we met Saturday night) came right over and greeted us like old friends.

Love the little archway over the street.

Very crowded for the last night

 

An actory playing a part from a John B. Keane play, The Field - written 1965, nominated for an Academy Award for best actor (Richard Harris).

He was playing a bishop who is preaching to the people in a town where a murder occurred and imploring them to tell who and promising some fire and brimstone if they do not. Afterwards, Bill said he was ready to confess, it was that well written and spoken. I was ready to say it was John (our host).

Thanks for John Wade for getting us to all the fun spots in Listowel's music/theater scene!
