GATMAN! is a one-man monologue by Tadhg Hickey.

We spend a day with Murph as he wanders the streets of Cork desperately attempting to sober up before a supervised visit with his little boy. Murph’s story is interwoven with the adventures of Gatman, a superhero who acquires extraordinary powers when fuelled by Gat (booze). Gatman’s mission: to save his beloved, boozy Corkopia from the sobering shackles of Father Mathew – the temperance priest statue that has come to life.

This compelling new production explores the metamorphic effect that alcohol can have on the human spirit, delving into the depths of trauma and the desperate search for an elixir that transforms individuals into fantastical versions of themselves – the alter ego.
