Synopsis:
Molly is a theatrical adaptation of the final chapter of James Joyce's ULYSSES which presents an unexpurgated portrait of the incomparably infamous Molly Bloom the concert singing wife of the book's mock hero, Poldy.. Told through her own sleepy thoughts Joyce has created a thoroughly prototype 'femme fatale' - freely accepting her sexual self, jealous of other women, sometimes melancholic, demanding when dealing with a lover, and completely knowledgeable about men's eccentricities. This adaptation of molly by Peter Mc Garry has won widespread acclaim and won the International Theatre Festival in Winnipeg in 2001 and won gold medal the US Theatre Festival in 2002.
