Summary |
'Doldrum Bay' premiered at Dublin's Abbey Theatre in 2003. As Magda comes to terms with her demanding father's terminal illness, her husband Francis seduces a girl dressed as a mermaid with extracts from his Great Irish Novel which he's been so busy promoting he hasn't written it yet. Their friend Chick has been commissioned to come up with an advertising campaign for the Christian Brothers: advertise God in seven words. Louise is pregnant, trying to keep her head above water. The play is a soul-searching satire on their loves and losses, and their marooned, forty-something lives. |
