Autor Colin Murphy
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 apr 2019
A housing crisis, a hung Dáil and an unlikely alliance.Haughey|Gregory follows the deal made between Tony Gregory and Charles Haughey in 1982, when Gregory took a surprise Dáil seat - and suddenly found himself holding the balance of power. Dublin's Inner City is devastated by unemployment and addiction - and the planners' solution is simply to bulldoze it. But the general election results in the novice TD, Tony Gregory, holding the balance of power. Can Gregory use his vote to achieve something for his constituents? To do so, he will have to face off against the dominant personality of Irish politics - Charles J Haughey.

Caracteristici

An established play from one of Ireland's most prominent political theatre makers that appeals to students of drama as well as those of Irish contemporary history

Notă biografică

Colin Murphy writes plays about politics, and journalism. He is the author of a series of plays on Irish political history: Haughey/Gregory, on the 1982 "Gregory Deal", Inside the GPO, on the Easter Rising, Guaranteed!, on the bank guarantee of 2008, and Bailed Out!, on the subsequent crisis and Troika "bailout" of 2010, all produced by Fishamble. He adapted the latter two for screen, as The Guarantee and The Bailout (both produced by John Kelleher Media). He adapted the Charlie Bird book A Day in May for the stage. His verbatim dramas, Jack Duggan's War and Judging Shaw (based on Fintan O'Toole's book of the same name) have been staged by ANU Productions. His short film Leave to Remain was made for RTÉ Storyland (produced by Treasure Entertainment). He writes a weekly column for the Sunday Business Post.

Recenzii

Irresistible. a fitting tribute. Thoughtful and thoroughly enjoyable
Funny and fascinating slice of recent political history
The wit is razor-sharp... brilliant
That rough and ready aesthetic seems appropriate for the clash of personalities involved, as Gregory, a tenacious outsider, takes on the Prince of Power.
