1st Irish Festival Finale: Those You Pass on The Street by Laurence McKeown

Description

In Laurence McKeown’s arresting new work, Elizabeth, an RUC widow, walks into a Sinn Fein office seeking assistance with anti-social behavior in her area. There she sparks up a friendship with community officer Frank. This brief encounter challenges their pre-conceptions and beliefs, their family and political loyalties. Those You Pass On The Street explores the complexities of dealing with the legacy of conflict, especially when that conflict is local and personal.

Commissioned by Healing Through Remembering and first produced by Kabosh Theatre Company, both from Northern Ireland.
