New Writing Festival

March 2009
G12 Performance Studio

The New Writing Festival is made up of four freshly-written plays, each just under an hour in length, one of which will be chosen for a run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August.

Christ Alive!
Directed and Written by Michael John O’Neill
‘A Good Christian wife for a good Christian husband.’

I Don’t Live Here Anymore
Directed and Written by Philippa Mannion
‘Dreams evaporate at an exponential rate, until they are lost in space and time, never to return.’

No Wasted Education
Directed and Written by Ciaran McHale
‘A wee play about memory and nostalgia, about life changing and people moving apart.’

Insomnia
Directed and Written by Laura Jones
‘The world can seem like a scary place and contentment is always just out of reach.’
