After last year’s Christmas show Mistletoe and Crime, Marie Jones is back at the Lyric Theatre with her signature NI comedy style with Fly Me To The Moon, a show about two community care visitors.

Francis and Loretta are community care visitors. Davy, one of their elderly charges, has had a significant win on the horses, but he doesn’t know. When the cash-strapped women learn that Davey will not be around for a considerable time they are faced with a mouth-watering dilemma.

Marie Jones is the author of some of the most successful plays ever produced on the island of Ireland including Stones in His Pockets and Women on the Verge of HRT. This play investigates whether we are valued more in life or in death.

Presented by Patrick Talbot Productions and Rathmore Productions Fly Me To The Moon is showing at the Lyric from now until 22nd August. You can find out more info here or book tickets here. We’ll also be bringing you our full review later on this week.

Hi, I'm Laura. I'm 30 years old and have a degree in Journalism with Photo-Imaging at the University of Ulster. I have an undying love for Belfast and all that it has to offer, an undying love for sleeping, Tegan and Sara, trashy tv shows, foreign snack-foods and being irresponsible with money. I also quite like origami, reading, jazz, hip-hop, dubstep, anything acoustic and Food Network TV. I've written for The Big List, Culture NI, Chatterbox and The Echo, as well as writing for BBC Across the Line.
