  • Drámadóir

    Micheál Mac Liammóir 

  • Nótaí Faoin Údar

    Translated by the author from the Irish.

  • Suíomh

    Set on a Mailboat and in a Cafe in Ireland

  • Achoimre

    Set in the fictional state of Cardomam - a fence sitting state between East and West - and performed to the rules of the Classical Theatre of Cardomam, where no scenery is used,and the actors introduce and explain themselves. This satirical comedy has as its central character, a breezy old cynic of a Prime Minister who finds politics fun and has ambitions for his son. No men survive the authors wrath, admin-men, admen, Tellymen, Pollymen, soldiermen, no men... At the end the only man left lectures to a bunch of post-fallout children.
