A love dilemma in Monasterevin

Monasterevin Drama Group presents The Two Loves of Gabriel Foley by Jim Keary in Monasterevin Community Centre on January 23, 24 and 25 at 8pm

Will farmer Gabriel's luck finally change? He hasn't had an easy run of it, but things are looking up.. when not one bus arrives, but two! What's a man to do with so much choice? Is it advice or sweet nothings being whispered in his ear?

Gabriel Foley is a middle-aged bachelor farmer, who lives with his elderly mother. He has been unlucky in love many times, much to his mother’s frustration. She thinks she’ll never get rid of him. Then he meets upmarket, Hazel Myers and joins the posh drama group in the nearby town in order to romance her.

He is unaware that Chrissie McCabe — a cheerful country woman, who comes in to help him and his mother — fancies him. By the time Chrissie makes her feelings known to Gabriel, he has already got Hazel’s attention.

He and Chrissie decide to try going out together. He tries to let Hazel down gently, but Hazel is not a woman to give up easily.
