Synopsis: | Irish playwright Joseph Crilly sets his new play at a key point in Irish history just after the Catholic Emancipation Act has been passed in 1829 and opens it in Belfast where he presents it as a still contentious issue. However, although a petition against the Act with its many signatures written on a great length of cloth is an important feature of his plot, this is not a political play. The fact that the eponymous Kitty is a Catholic doesn't stop the son of her village's best-off Protestant from wanting to marry her, nor does the fact that she's probably also been with most of the lads in the village. | |||||
