We were invited to bring it to the Galway Arts Festival, and performing it there was one of the highlights of my career, genuinely. "I met Paul (Fahy, now the artistic director of the festival) the first time I came over and we struck up a friendship that goes beyond the theatre. I'm not just saying this to blow smoke up you, but my two favourite places in the world are Galway and Chicago."
"He always said his two favourite places in the world were Chicago and Galway. He loved Galway City and Connemara, he often came back here for a holiday, especially in the wintertime."
RIP John Mahoney. Great memories from the Galway International Arts Festival. Wonderful patron of GIAF. pic.twitter.com/Tr09vr7Jim
