Performer-writer Mikel Murfi has concocted one or three theater pieces, depending on how one counts. Mikel Murfi’s trilogy, a one-man piece, follows the life of a cobbler from Sligo, Ireland. Not surprisingly, Sligo is where the playwright-performer Murfi hails from.

A simple man, Pat Farnon, wants to live out his life simply, without excitement. Then, one day, a magnificent woman comes into his life. She is Kitsy Rainey, and Pat’s life is forever changed. They marry. And Pat experiences a love he never thought possible.
