Seeing Green

The award-winning play The Lieutenant of Inishmore -- written by Martin McDonough of In Bruges fame -- is the perfect way to kick of St. Patrick's Day celebrations if you're Irish. Even if you're not, it's hard to resist this wacky tale of an Irish Liberation Army enforcer and his best friend, a black cat named Wee Thomas.
