Fish Climbing Trees by Joe O'Byrne
Clara's anything but, in Joe O'Byrne's new radio-play. Her name may mean clear, bright and famous in Old Latin, but, in modern English, this sad stand-up artiste must take it lying down: it's a pity laugh in the late-night cabaret where she performs and a hospital pass in the psychiatric facility where the day-job makes and/or breaks her. Is she a culprit or a casualty, a carer or a client? Maybe Mike, who thinks he's Leonardo, can paint her in her true colours.
Clara was played by Claire Barrettt
and Mike/Leonardo by Peter Daly.
Harry and Kev, the other members of the Mosquito Trio, were played by Paul Ronan and Stephen Jones.
Joe Taylor was Dr. Maguire,
Deirdre Monahan ... Ms. Johnson & Sadie,
and Kathy Rose O'Brien played Paula.
Sound supervision was by Richard McCullough.
Fish Climbing Trees by Joe O'Byrne was produced by Aidan Mathews.
