McCool XXL
McCOOL XXL
By Paul Boyd
Directed by Zoë Seaton
2002
Live theatre gig where pop met rock and tribe of five were wired for sound. From the days when men were men and fish could talk, Big Telly produced the unforgettable saga of the wild child who took on the world Finn McCool, the original rock legend. The meteoric rise from abandoned baby to Ireland's first megastar was charted through songs sung blue and numbers off the scale. Featuring video, illusion and stunning special effects this unique theatre-gig had the attitude of a rock concert with a cast that included THE BELFAST GIANTS!!!!
Think Rocky Horror, think Forbidden Planet, think McCool Extra Extra Large it's absolutely seismic!
