Present

 ‘Citizenship

by

Mark Ravenhill


A frank and confronting look at the confusions, desires and anxieties of a teenage boy on a journey of self-discovery. Tom wants someone to tell him who he is – is he straight, gay, bisexual? - and he is having a recurring dream, in which he is kissing a shadowy figure. The only problem is that he can't tell if the person is a woman or a man. This beautifully written bittersweet comedy about growing up follows Tom's journey as he tries to discover who he is.

Directed by Niall Cleary

This Production will be staged at 1pm, each day during the Galway Arts Festival for a two week run from Monday July 12th – Sat July 24that Nuns Island Theatre

The Irish Premiere

Of

‘Tusk Tusk’

by

Polly Stenham


Come on troops. Let's take check: Finbar, slightly ruffled but still in fighting form. Maggie, could do with a full night's sleep but otherwise all in order...

 Stay here. Don't answer the door. 

A seven year-old boy, his teenage brother and his sister wait in a room with the world on their shoulders. They joke, tease, spit like fireworks and laugh like soul mates, and they just, keep, waiting. Waiting for the phone to ring. She’ll be calling soon. She’s never left them alone for this long. Dancing a fine line between hilarity and heartache, Tusk Tusk is the new offering from 22 year-old English sensation Polly Stenham, this is a haunting theatre experience that will stay with you long after the performance has ended.

Directed by Andrew Flynn
