FORNOCHT DO CHONAC / NAKED I SAW YOU

By Eoghan Ó Tuairisc
Directed by Eoin Mac Diarmada

Abbey Theatre

9-12 November

An interrogation of the legacy of 1916 revolutionary Patrick Pearse.

A disillusioned sculptor called Pearse, hiding from a crime of violence, questions the legacy of Padraig Pearse and whether his spirit and ideology are a force for good or evil?

This play was first performed in 1979 and is a scathing look at Irish society, still relevant today.

A multimedia production from An Taibhdhearc, the National Irish Language Theatre, performed in Irish with English surtitles.
