Micheál Mac Liammóir
The action of the play is a room in Antony Conlon's house in Dublin.
The unpublished script in the Mac Liammóir papers at National Library of Ireland uses the alternative title 'Shadow of a Dancer'.
A melodrama about the tragic shadow a Spanish dancer casts across the fate of a Dublin family, the Conlons. Tina Conlon is in fact the daughter of the dancer and thus not related by blood to the brother, Larry, she adores so much, a fact that will complicate their adult life together.
