‘Slow Down’
An 90 minute drama
on road safety (true story)
Introduction to
the story and its origins.
Brian has a girlfriend Karen. Brian has two good friends
Joe and Barry. Joe's Dad has recently purchased a car for him All have just finished their leaving cert and are looking
forward to the future. It is 21nd of June 1998, the longest day of
the year.
For these four young people it would become the longest
day of
their lives.
'Brian O Louglin's story of life on the 21st of June was given to me as a personal account of the accident and the aftermath. It was fantastic that all concerned allowed me to develop this drama so that audiences could be inspired and at the same time reminded of the dangers on our roads. Brian's story is no different to most others and all are tragic. I thank him and the many families involved for their bravery and all the people who sat and listened to it'
Michael O Sullivan Artistic director
‘A Race against
time’
An 90 minute drama on racism.
Introduction on racism from relevant research and
resources followed by two short plays performed back to back.
Play one
Selva and Heider have been
friends since childhood in Berlin. They made a pact, a blood pact to be
brothers forever but the war changes all that and the Jewish kid and his
Christian friend get torn apart by the racist views of others.
Play two
Kieran finds out he is
adopted at the age of 32. His life is turned upside down as he goes in search
of his birth mother only to find she is of mixed race thus affecting his
beliefs.
The two plays identify with our attitudes to different races of people or even ourselves within our own villages towns and cities. 'The right side of town'
The second of these plays is actually a true story and poses the simple question 'If the colour of our skin was different would it matter?'
