Fifty years after his wrongful conviction, at the age of 74, Paddy is facing into his twilight years and wrestling with a thousand turbulent memories. In Paddy he relives the journey that forever altered his destiny.

Wycherley is superlative in this exquisitely tender portrayal of Paddy Armstrong
Emer O’Kelly, Sunday Independent

one-man show, starring Don Wycherley as Paddy, the play is inspired by Paddy’s memoir Life After Life, a Guildford Four Memoir. Paddy is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of forgiveness, reminding us that the privilege of freedom and love, family and everyday life can restore us and mend the scars of even the most savage injustice.

Incredible… Don Wycherley in the performance of his life…Unforgettable” Joe Duffy

Don Wycherley brings unflinching honestypathos, and humour to his portrayal of Paddy, a man failed and scarred by a flawed system yet refusing to be defined by it.

Stunning play and performance. Don’t miss it” Alastair Logan (Guildford Four solicitor)
