| Brought to recent attention by the film
'The Magdalene Sisters', this play vividly
portrays the despair and inhumanity inflicted
on the 'Maggies' - those unfortunate girls
who had the misfortune to be institutionalised
in the Magdalen Laundries. Their crimes? Being
pregnant mainly. Their punishment? Separated
from their familes and long hours in the laundry.
Requires a mostly young cast. |

| An important moment of history is highlighted
in ‘The Revolutionaries’. The theme
of the play is the fight for power around the time
of Lenin's death and takes place in the aftermath
of the 1917 Russian Revolution. Lenin knew he was
dying and was concerned about who might be his successor.
He favoured Trotsky, but as history tells, Stalin
was very much in the way. |
