Book excerpt: Over a decade, Fishamble commissioned and called for submissions of tiny plays that reflected major changes in Irish society from 2011-2021. Inviting playwrights to submit plays of less than 600 words, the company produced 50 tiny plays in Tiny Plays for Ireland, 10 tiny plays in Tiny Plays 24/7, and 10 tiny plays in partnership with ESB in Tiny Plays for a Brighter Future. These productions of tiny plays created a patchwork quilt of theatre to reflect the times through which we were living. They were performed in Project Arts Centre Dublin, Irish Arts Center New York, and Kennedy Center Washington DC, as well as shared online. This anthology publishes all 70 tiny plays, providing an invaluable resource of four-minute plays for actors, directors, students, and teachers.
Download or read book Underneath written by Pat Kinevane and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-02-06 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's mad that ye're here with me. In Cobh. I always felt like I was born on the brink of the world. That I was near death, always. And here I am! Hereafter. This place of slower motion. But whipping energy. Back Home. A woman lies dead in her grave in the Tumbledown cemetery, Cobh, County Cork. It's a recent relocation; only two weeks before she was living in a flat near Croke Park in Dublin, beneath two East European prostitutes who she had begun to be friendly with. From her last resting place, she tells the story of her life: her happy childhood and the mother who loved Cleopatra; being struck by lightning and then missing school for a year; her night shifts in hotels washing and mending laundry; up to her ultimate and untimely demise in a north Dublin flat; all via a series of unlikely encounters and heartbreaking betrayals. Written in Pat Kinevane's signature style, Underneath is a blackly comic, rich and vivid tale of a life lived in secret, a testament to the people who live on the fringes, under the nose of everyday life. Underneath was published to coincide with the play's first production by Fishamble theatre company in December 2014.

Download or read book A Glass Apart written by Fionnán O’Connor and published by Images Publishing. This book was released on 2015-08-28 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Irish single pot still whiskey has a romantic mystique for many whiskey critics because of its tragic history as the ‘lost sister’ of single malt scotch. Ireland’s history and politics resulted in the near-annihilation of the national drink and there’s an almost eerie beauty to the ‘silent’ distilleries that still dot the Irish countryside. These distilleries inform the aesthetic of the title and, indeed, there is visual poetry in the barrels, pot stills and photogenic amber spirits that convey the Irish whiskey world. Although Irish whiskey is currently the fastest-growing global spirits category and Irish ‘pure pot still’ has long been a favourite drink among whiskey critics and connoisseurs, the existing literature is still surprisingly sparse. This book illustrates the production, history, and appreciation of Irish pot still whiskey and will introduce casual drinkers to the richness of these whiskeys as well as being a collectors’ item for established whiskey connoisseurs.

Download or read book The Treaty written by Colin Murphy and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-01-10 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In October 1921, after more than two years of war, a delegation of untested Irish politicians arrived in London to negotiate with the British government for peace, unity and a republic. They returned home with just one of those; and that peace didn't last long, as war with Britain was replaced by war with their own. Were the Irish outclassed or outgunned? Were they deceived? Did they deceive their colleagues back in Dublin? Or did they achieve the best that could be achieved, an incremental step on the way to fuller sovereignty, in the process redefining the British Empire? The Treaty tells the story of what happened inside those negotiations, as Michael Collins and Arthur Griffith faced off against one of the most formidable negotiating teams ever assembled, headed by the 'Welsh Wizard' David Lloyd George, with Winston Churchill often at his side--back cover.
