The details of the productions of the Theatre of Ireland repertoire are as yet incomplete in the Irish Playography. In compiling the list of productions, we have used various sources including The Alternative Dramatic Revival in Ireland by Karen Vandevelde, Thomas MacDonagh, a Critical Biography by Johann A. Norstedt, A Century of Irish Drama: Widening the Stage edited by Eileen M Morgan, Shakir Mustafa, Stephen Watt and printed play texts.
