Monsignor’s story to be told in INEC
By Sean Moriarty
The story of one of Killarney’s favourite sons, Monsignor Hugh O’Flaherty, will be told at a special play in the INEC next month.
‘God Has No Country’ is the story of Monsignor Hugh O’Flaherty’s war time exploits in Rome.
It will be performed at the INEC on December 21 at 8pm. Last week the Killarney Advertiser revealed that the INEC is to launch a new ‘Culture Club’.
Three different plays will take place between November 28 and December 22 with ‘God Has No Country’ as the season finale.
Killarney’s own Donal Courtney will perform the one-man play.
“The story is told from the Monsignor’s point of view,” Donal said. “It is a study of the torment and difficulty in the decisions he undertook in his fight for justice. This is re-enacted through the use of storytelling and various characterisations. The play is a dramatisation of actual events, and while careful research has been carried out in its creation, as a dramatic work certain licence has been taken.”
