The Female Playwrights collection celebrates the work of 5 femae playwrights from all over Ireland and contains 5 plays.
Mustard by Eva O’Connor
When E meets the man of her dreams, a professional cyclist, love hits her in the pubic bone like a train. But when it ends she plummets into a black hole of heartbreak at the speed of a doped up team on the Tour de France.
A one-woman show about heartbreak, madness and how condiments are the ultimate coping mechanism, by award-winning playwright & performer Eva O’Connor.
Breaking by Amy Kidd
Welcome to the world of Sam and Charlie in Breaking, a groundbreaking first play by Amy Kidd. It looks like love but it tastes like control. How do we judge, when we can’t trust our own judgment? Who do we distrust and who gets the benefit of the doubt?
Fishamble’s Breaking asks fascinating and profound questions about how we navigate a world without any simple answers.
In Two Minds by Joanne Ryan
Explored through the dynamic of a mother-daughter relationship, In Two Minds is deeply personal, inventive, funny and life-affirming. As a new work it plays with both the fascinating allure and the challenges of living with bipolar disorder. From the stellar writer Joanne Ryan (Lustrum Award winner) comes a tale of the adult child and parent sharing the same home. In Two Minds finds insight in the darkness, humour in the pain and tenderness in difficult family dynamics.
Rathmines Road by Deirdre Kinahan
Set over one evening, Rathmines Road by Deirdre Kinahan is a play that rages in a tiny room. Fraught, funny, and ferocious, this new drama challenges the cultural response to accusations of sexual assault.
Bristling with tension, Rathmines Road unleashes a brutal truth that affects us all. It is a play that asks: when and how do we take responsibility?
Mainstream by Rosaleen McDonagh
We share a history, we share a memory and they both share my heart.
It’s that time of the year. A time that Eoin, Mary Anne and Jack all remember. They have all agreed to take part in a documentary. They have all lied to each other about what they are going to say on camera.
A play by Rosaleen McDonagh about truth, lies and the mainstreaming of Travellers with disabilities.
