(a holy show: Irish phrase meaning to make a spectacle of oneself)

It’s 1981 and Aer Lingus flight 164 to London is about to board. Tina and Joe are on their honeymoon, Bun is off to meet her new granddaughter, Mary is nervously flying for the first time, and Downey is on a mission to learn the Third Secret of Fatima at any cost! Two actors play twenty characters in this whirlwind comedy based on the true story of a disgraced Australian monk who hijacked a passenger jet using nothing but holy water.

Approximate Runtime: 65 minutes
