Set in the border 'bandit' country of County Monaghan, The Mushroom
Pickers tells the story of Laura, an accomplished actor who leaves
her career in London when her life unexpectedly changes course. A
self-confessed 'square peg in a round hole, ' she returns home to
join her father, Philip, to work in the local mushroom tunnels.
Here Frank McElroy, manager of the family-run business and
proponent of the wilder variety of mushroom, takes a shine to Laura
and shares with her his dream of wooing the restaurateurs of
Ireland and beyond. But Frank has a secret - and so does Laur
Based on the story of a real-life crime that happened at the
tail-end of the longest recession in Ireland's history,
Leopoldville is a play about a gang of young men who rob a pub in a
border town. Damaged lives are revealed and friendships profoundly
tested as their crime spirals horrifically out of control.
Escaping the Irish famine in 1850 five young women seek passage on
a ship to Australia. For many of the 'orphan girls' on board, the
voyage offers a fresh start. But some girls find they cannot escape
the memory of the lives they've left behind - and that the closer
they get to Australia the more powerful the past becomes.
