A lorry driver has pleaded guilty to stealing a bra and underwear from a circus in Derry last month.

Seamus James Gerald Bonner, 32, from Ivy Terrace, committed the offence on 11 April.

He admitted entering, as a trespasser, a mobile changing room at a circus in Ebrington Square and stealing the bra and underwear.

Sentencing was put back until 20 June to enable the preparation of a pre-sentence report.

Bonner?

Big Top?

Scanty details?

An atmospheric and technically impressive master’s thesis animation by Edwin Schaap who sez:

A young deformed boy lives as a side-show freak. When his father asks him to make a birthday-wish he starts to imagine..It’s a metaphor for the expectation some parents have of their children, without seeing that they have other ambitions and their own dreams.

Mmf.
