Presented by Modest Odyssey
For reasons currently unknown, rising sea levels have inexplicably affected Ireland and Ireland only, reducing the island to one small indistinct piece of land owned by one remaining Irish civilian.
The Last Man in Ireland is a surrealist three-hander that explores the cyclical themes of family dysfunction, grief and identity. Using the lens of millennial angst, the play delves comedically into the past to present the story of an imagined future. A chaotic tale of family and identity described as John B. Keane meets Bladerunner.
The Last Man in Ireland was developed at Scene + Heard and as part of the Smock Alley Theatre Writer’s Programme.
