‘See, love between a man and a woman, it’s – private. It happens where you never do see it. In rooms.’
Fishamble: The New Play Company returns for an eight-venue tour of Ireland with its highly-acclaimed production of The Pride of Parnell Street by award-winning novelist and playwright Sebastian Barry. Originally premiered in London in 2007, The Pride of Parnell Street toured Ireland and internationally in 2008, and was presented as part of the 1st Irish Festival in New York in 2009, to further great acclaim. In a series of intercutting monologues, Janet and Joe chart the
intimacies of their love and the rupturing of their relationship, as well as their enduring love affair with Dublin city itself. This is an intimate, heroic tale of ordinary and extraordinary life on the streets of Dublin.
