About Big Ole Piece of Cake:
Dublin lads Colin and Ray are out of luck, out of work, out of grub and nearly out of fags. On a whim old and lonely ex-teacher Clarence invites the two brothers back to his cottage in Wicklow. Through the course of one electric evening, the unlikely trio attempt to play happy families over naggins and history lessons, but when push comes to shove, Clarence gets a lot more than he bargained for. Step inside for a comic and quirky evening of roast chicken, yellow snorkel jackets and Stevie Wonder. Following the success of Noah and the Tower Flower which won The Irish Times Best New Play Award and the Stewart Parker Trust Award, Fishamble reunites director Jim Culleton with Sean McLoughlin for this much anticipated, sparky second play.
