John Kane sits on a hospital trolley. Very shortly, a giant
lobster, two women called Mary, a very old man and a jazz
percussionist arrive. Then everything starts. Enda Walsh's Medicine
is a dark and frequently absurdist play. Devastatingly funny and
profoundly moving, it examines how, for decades, we have treated
those we call 'mentally ill'. It was first produced by Landmark
Productions and Galway International Arts Festival as part of the
2021 Edinburgh International Festival, prior to performances in
Galway and New York. It was directed by Enda Walsh, with a cast
including Clare Barrett, Aoife Duffin and Domhnall Gleeson, with
drummer Sean Carpio. This edition also includes Walsh's play The
Same, about two women who meet in a psychiatric institution.
Published here for the first time, it was produced by Corcadorca in
2017, and won The Irish Times Irish Theatre Award for Best Play.
