Set amongst the faced paced environment of 1960's London, Days of Wine and Roses tells the story of two strangers who meet and fall in Love. Donal works as a bookies clerk and Mona is an impressionable civil-servant and both are originally from Belfast. Social drinking is almost an occupational requirement and one that the young couple adopt all too easily. An exciting whirlwind of discovery quickly begins to spiral out of control as the bottle takes its grip.
This is the first national tour of JP Miller's Days of Wine and Roses. Directed by Conall Morrison, the production will premiere in Draíocht on 10th September and will span eleven weeks and visit twenty - two venues in total around the country ending up in Tipperary Excel 21st November. Originally a film in the 1960's, starring Jack Lemmon and Lee Remick, this new version by Owen McCafferty will not want to be missed.
