There are only 7 performances left of The Accidental Patriot: The Lamentable Tragedy of the Pirate Desmond Connelly, Irish by Birth, English by Blood, and American by Inclination. The Accidental Patriot is the third installment of Stolen Chair's CineTheatre Tetralogy, an original 1930s-style swashbuckler (as Sophocles might have written it if he’d been under contract to Warner Brothers), set against the tumultuous backdrop of the American Revolution.  This mash-up of Greek tragedy and Errol Flynn-era pirate films features both rapier duels and rapier wit as it satirizes heroism, patriotism, altruism, and all of the other flimsy –isms that move us to action. Buy your tickets now.

To celebrate the opening of The Accidental Patriot, Stolen Chair will be presenting Pirates, Patriots, Patricides, several evenings of short works of theatre inspired by our play's themes and styles.
