Childish Things

Forbhreathnú

  • Drámadóir

    Seán McCarthy 

  • Suíomh

    Set in the living room of a semi-detached house in a Cork suburb.

  • Achoimre

    Charlie and Máire leave Thatcher’s London to return to Cork, full of optimism and idealism. However the ‘dinner party’ they throw to reunite with three of their closest, oldest friends, turns into an evening of bitching and drinking, ending up literally in a right mess. The blighted idealism of the returning couple (who emigrated in the first place for moral/philosophical, rather than economic reasons) clashes with the shallow, conservative materialism of those who stayed behind to build the “new” Ireland, and gives us, what could be called, a very black comedy of manners.
