Description The find of the 1990 Edinburgh Fringe, Rough Magic Theatre will provide the most significant dramatic component of the 1992 Fringe. Bat the Father, Rabbit the Son, written and performed by Donal O'Kelly, explores the relationship between Rabbit, a haulage contractor - a vulgar, selfmade businessman, and his mild mannered father, a failed pawnshop assistant. Using only a chair, a table and lighting effects, O'Kelly unravels the nature of their relationship by acting out events real of imaginary in the life of Rabbit and his father.
