DUPed
Written and performed by John McCann
(Scotsman Fringe First Award-winning Show 2018)

DUPed is the award-winning show written and performed by the two-time Scotsman Fringe First award winning writer John McCann and directed by Erasmus Mackenna, currently a student of theatre directing at the prestigious University of the Arts in Amsterdam.

The Reverend Dr. Ian Richard Kyle Paisley was once a young, firebrand, fundamentalist preacher from the heart of Ulster’s Bible Belt. He toured towns and villages booming populist, sectarian politics in increasingly incendiary times; a bogeyman or bellwether for generations to come.

Based upon extensive interviews with various campaigners, activists and journalists from across the North of Ireland, DUPed explores the legacy and continuing impact of Paisley and his Democratic Unionist Party on those who oppose extreme religious and social conservatism.

COME OUT FROM AMONG THEM is the companion piece to the Scotsman Fringe First Award-Winning DUPed, continuing the writer’s odyssey he meets supporters and political representatives of the DUP.
