Irish Shorts: Two-Handers from the Abbey Theatre, Ireland: NHB Modern Plays

A collection of short plays by exciting new Irish writers, selected and introduced by the literary manager of the Abbey Theatre.

These eight short plays by some of the most exciting new Irish playwrights around were commissioned and staged by the Abbey Theatre, Dublin.

All of the plays are written for one man and one woman - with one exception, which is written for two men - and are ideal for performance in studio theatres, one-act play festivals, and as duologues. Together, the plays showcase the Abbey's commitment to nurturing and introducing the very best new Irish writing.

Includes the plays: Stop Over by Gary Duggan; When the Cows Go Boom by Stacey Gregg; Love in a Glass Jar by Nancy Harris; Meeting Miss Ireland by Rosemary Jenkinson; Salad Day by Deirdre Kinahan; Nineteen Twenty Two by Lisa McGee; Investment Potential by Phillip McMahon and Ribbons by Elaine Murphy.
