Tom MacIntyre
What Happened Bridgie Cleary
| | Company |
Abbey Theatre, Dublin, Ireland >>> |
Synopsis:
The title's fractured syntax is the first clue that Tom MacIntyre's play will not be a straightforward retelling of the story of Bridget Cleary, a Tipperary woman who was burned to death by her husband in 1895 for suspected witchcraft. The setting, we realise, is the afterlife, where Bridgie sits at her Singer sewing machine, listens to distant heron cries, and tells stories with a compelling combination of intensity and matter-of-factness: "Bridgie Cleary, who made weskits for the gentry, hats for the quality. Bridgie Cleary, always the step or two above buttermilk ..." She is joined by her husband Mikey, now an old man because he outlived her. Indirectly and allusively, they exchange stories and information, working their way towards an inevitable reckoning. A third party then appears, their snooty neighbour William, who was previously Bridgie's lover.
