Ireland’s Call

Follow the lives and family histories of three young men as they grow up in Coolock on Dublin’s northside. What shapes them and entices them to a life of crime?

Examining issues of class, religion and identity, this new play is an unflinching exploration of the Irish psyche, bringing our collective guilt, secrets and flaws to the surface.

John Connors, the award-winning Love/Hate actor, makes his debut as a playwright with this one-man show about three Dublin teenagers being enticed into a life of crime.

Developed as part of Show In A Bag, an artist development initiative of Dublin Fringe Festival, Fishamble: The New Play Company and Irish Theatre Institute, to resource theatre makers and actors.

Written and performed by John Connors
