Just in time for St. Patrick’s Day, THE IRISH CURSE returns to New York City, examining a problem that not even Viagra, Cialis, or Enzyte can cure. Winner of the Overall Excellence Award for Outstanding Playwrighting at the 2005 Fringe Festival, THE IRISH CURSE follows the travails of four men who meet weekly in a church basement to discuss their, er, rather embarrassing red nose, short hose problem. But when a new guy joins the group, everyone is forced to look at themselves and their situation in a whole new way. The production, which opens March 17 at the Soho Playhouse, was written by Martin Casella, directed by Matt Lenz, and stars Dan Butler, Roderick Hill, Scott Jaeck, Brian Leahy, and Austin Peck.
