Deskripsi
Ireland in the early 80's. No civil divorce. No exit. Cul-de-sac. No way out of a broken marriage...
Shock. Aftershock. Wave after wave... As he comes to realise that his wife has gone, gone for good, he begins to talk - to himself,
to his nine-years-old daughter, to a "local in his local," to a parish sage, to a
solicitor/lawyer, to his Boss at work, to clerics, to a psychiatrist...

Silence - a positive value completely overlooked by many today...Reading - carefully judged. If I'm not hooked by the first sequence - the first paragraph - I won't read any further...Trying, day in day out, not to spill any more milk... and to stop crying over milk already spilt.Not suffering fools gladly...Analysing Casablanca, frame for frame, line by line...(TBC...)PublicationsMy scripts have been broadcast on RTE, Radio One, BBC 4 and, in translation, on European networks; televised on RTE One, BBC One and Channel 4; staged at the Peacock by the Abbey National Theatre, at the Project, the Eblana, the Liverpool Playhouse and on the London Fringe...Credits include The Night of the Rouser.

Hello?.. Patricia?.. Ah-hh… Bearing up, just about…
No word, no?.. No... I was hoping you might have... No…
‘Waited up half the night... Unless she showed during the day?
Well, she has her own key... ‘knows bloody well I’m at work...
Four days now. And nights... Not fair, not a bit fair
on the wee one… Ah, you wouldn’t know, Patricia.
Wasn’t a word out of her getting ready for school –
another morning you couldn’t shut her up...
Oh, she’ll be all right till I get home, it’s just for now...
