A new play, “The Revolution: The Irish War of Independence 1919-1921,” unearths long-forgotten depredations of Ireland by the British that range back to the Middle Ages, along with the smothering Penal Laws they imposed that reverberate in Irish culture, politics, and society to this very day.

Featuring local actors Trish Cipoletti, Dan Ferry, David Oswald, Pamela Wallace, Sharon Ferry, Bruce Brown, Colleen Popper, Denise Shelton, Joe Grahek, Fiona Sweeney, and Mary Pat Lemass, almost all of whom are of direct Irish descent. The play is scripted and directed by Ara Barlieb.

Tickets are $20 and may be purchased online at ckplayers.com or 610-704-6974.
