Musical on Anglo Irish banking crisis to open in Dublin
The collapse of Anglo Irish Bank in the Republic might seem more suited to Greek tragedy than musical satire. The bank was nationalised in 2009 at a cost of about 30bn euros (£23.4bn) to Irish taxpayers. But a musical satire on the collapse of the bank and the Irish economy, with lead parts played by Spitting Image-style puppets, will open in Dublin next week. Our Dublin reporter Jennifer O'Leary visited rehearsals for us (Broadcast Good Morning Ulster Nov 9)
