“What happens in Inishmaan....stays in Inishmaan literally. But everyone knows the tittle-tattle.....begorrah! By the author who traumatised  us in The Pillowman, Martin McDonagh's The Cripple Of Inishmaan is a very different journey. Set in Ireland on the smallest of the Aran Irelands, Inishmaan is a place isolated by time and space, with a community of (duine) Irish folk driven to cruelty by boredom and ignorance.
