    From the Gate Theatre web site:
    ( http://www.gate-theatre.ie/prog.html )
    See You Next Tuesday
    An adaptation by Ronald Harwood of
    the Francis Veber play Le Dîner de Cons

    Directed by Robin Lefèvre


    Previews from 26th September
    Opens 1st October

    The urbane Pierre has it all: money from his job as a successful publisher, a beautiful wife, an adoring mistress and numerous friends. He also has an unusual pastime…every Tuesday he and his friends dine with a different so-called "twat". It is this that brings Pierre into contact with the finest example of a twat he believes he has ever met: François, an accountant for the Inland Revenue, whose only passion in life stems from matchstick models. When the paths of these two unlikely dinner companions cross, the result is unexpected and hilarious.

    Misunderstanding, mistaken identity, frustration and intrigue all combine to craft the sophisticated comedy that is See You Next Tuesday.

    The Gate is delighted to present Ardal O'Hanlon as the hapless François, making his first ever stage appearance. Risteárd Cooper, who co-writes and performs in RTÉ's Après Match, will make a welcome return to the Gate as Pierre, the other half of the doomed duo.

    Cast also includes Fiona Bell, Michael James Ford, John Kavanagh, Brian McGrath and Fiona O'Shaughnessy.

    Time : 8.00 p.m.
    Running Time : 1 hour 40 minutes including a 15 minute interval
    Price : €24 & €22

    This play comes highly recommended and has been reviewed and rated as many things ... from "surprisingly good" to "utterly hilarious"... I fully intend to go to see it and when I do, I'll post up my own comments on it.

    Incidentally, the "Michael James Ford" in the cast is my uncle.
