Una Pooka

Forbhreathnú

  • Drámadóir

    Michael Harding 

  • Suíomh

    The action begins on the eve of the Pope's visit to Ireland in September 1979.

  • Achoimre

    Una's family is in Dublin to see the Pope. But there are unanswered questions. Would the Pope condemn communion in the hand? Would he put a halt to the gallop of well-heeled women? But more importantly, why was Una's brother being force-fed on muesli and lentils? Why did Father Simeon want to join a circus in Rio de Janeiro? Una Pooka is the fantasy of a single woman in a nation on its knees before the Roman Pontiff.
