THE PLOUGH AND THE STARS

Wexford Drama Group are delighted to present their summer 2018 production, the wonderful ‘The Plough and the Stars’ by Seán O’Casey, directed by Thomas O’Leary. This wonderful piece of Irish drama will be performed in the Jerome Hynes Theatre, National Opera House nightly at 8 p.m. till Sunday, August 5. Set amid the tumult of the Easter Rising, ‘The Plough and the Stars’ is the story of ordinary lives ripped apart by the idealism of the time. The residents of a Dublin tenement shelter from the violence that sweeps through the city’s streets. A revolution that will shape the country’s future rages around them. What kind of Ireland awaits them?
