Curtain comes down on Corcadorca's final act

Eileen Walsh and Cillian Murphy in Disco Pigs.
It was the theatre company that launched the stellar careers of the likes of Cillian Murphy and Enda Walsh, but after 31 years, Corcadorca is bringing the curtain down on its final act.
Based in recent years at Triskel in Cork, a statement from the company's management on Tuesday revealed they would not apply for Arts Council funding and would wind down the highly-regarded company.
