It’s election time for the Stormont Assembly. Our political parties go into overdrive to win votes. The corridors at Stormont become a hive of activity as various news networks set up to catch interviews with the leading politicians. Sinn Fein’s Gerry Kelly and Michael McGimpsey of The Ulster Unionist Party are about to conduct a phone interview with Talkback. Meanwhile, a militant group of environmentalists have decided that the election is too good an opportunity to miss. Exploiting the media presence they make bold plans to take their case to the heart of Government. Will they be successful? How do the fancy-suited Gerry Kelly and the earnest Michael McGimpsey end up at the centre of the militant protest? Will this all end in tears?
STORMONT, a hilarious comedy written by and starring BBC TV’s Folks On The Hill funnyman Sean Crummey, also starring Marty Maguire who has just finished a successful run in the Grand Opera House as Matt Busby in Dancing Shoes – The George Best Story. And Paul Boyd who has just finished a successful run in the Lyric Theatres production of the Miser.
