"A major statement by a major Irish playwright" (Irish Times)
Famine portrays the Great Hunger of the Irish in 1840s, with fresh
pathos and insight. "The macabre business of blight and death, of
wakes and murder, of poisoned love and lost hope, and the scandal
of an emigration policy that was in effect one of
transportation...are some of the modern Irish theatre's most
powerful and poetic scenes." (Observer)"A classic...Murphy's script
burns through to the very soul of all of us" (Irish Independent)
