Notes: -

Synopsis: Tragicomedy of the tenement dwellers in Dublin of 1922, a world invaded by the cruelties of war. While "Captain" Jack Boyle struts about from pub to pub like a "paycock," his long-suffering wife Juno struggles to make ends meet in their meagre home. Their daughter Mary, having joined the workers' strike, is no longer providing money for food, and their son Johnny, armless and lame as a result of his part in the battle for independence, has become timid and afraid, especially when he hears of the violence in the street. It appears that the bullet-ridden body of Robbie Tancred, a young neighbour with whom Johnny vehemently denies any friendship, has been found. Although Juno and the Captain try to comfort Mrs. Tancred, they are not deeply affected by her tragedy. However, the news brought by Mary's new suitor, the lawyer Charlie Bentham, that they have inherited half the property of a rich relative, sets them to animated rejoicing. The Captain promises to change his ways, to stop drinking, at last to get a job,

Synopsis: Tragicomedy set in a Dublin tenement district late in 1915 and early in 1916, before and during the Easter Rebellion, whose participants fight under the banner of Irish independence, the plough and the stars. Peace-loving Nora Clitheroe, a pregnant young bride, tries to prevent her husband Jack from becoming a commandant in the Irish Citizen Army. Their boarders and neighbours include Peter Flynn, an old Irish Patriot; "the Covey," an ineffectual Communist; Fluther Good, an easygoing Catholic; Bessie Burgess, a hymn-singing drunk who is loyal to the Crown; and Rosie Redmond, a tart. Jack leaves to take command of his troops, and Bessie, having surveyed the battle, reports that the city is full of looters. Loyalty to the cause of Irish independence seems to vanish when all the neighbours join in the plundering. Meanwhile, Nora frantically searches for Jack. He returns, only to leave her again to help a dying comrade-in-arms. With much of Dublin in flames, word comes of Jack's heroic death, but Nora, whose mind

NY Times. "&original admixture of superb lyricism and madcap farce&a very beautiful and richly comic play, with a kind of wild and unruly magnificence about it&a wild, gay exuberance, and, combined with the distinguished loveliness of his lilting prose, the result is wonderfully exhilarating." NY Post.

But as in all Mr. O'Casey's latter-day plays, the real theme is the life of man-his valor, his joy, his love, his religious devotion, his loyalty and his belief in the future&"

Synopsis: Tragedy of the inadvertent involvement in war of a poet and a peddler, set in Dublin in 1920 during the guerrilla warfare between the insurgent Irish Republican Army (IRA) and the British forces. The peddler, Seumas Shields, takes into his tenement quarters Donal Davoren, a struggling, self-proclaimed poet whom the neighbours mistake for a brave IRA fighter. Davoren enjoys his new-found notoriety, especially when Minnie Powell falls in love with the image of him as the romantic poet-gunman. Meanwhile, a real patriot, Shields's friend Maguire, secretly hides a bagful of homemade bombs in the unsuspecting Shields's room and then goes off to an ambush that proves fatal. Afterward, during the resulting curfew, the Auxiliary Guard descends on the tenement. Having discovered Maguire's bombs, both Shields and Davoren panic, but Minnie retrieves the bag and hides it in her room. As a result, she is arrested and in trying to escape is shot to death. It is the shock of Minnie's death that reveals to Davoren his cowardl

Notes: -

Synopsis: Expressionistic tragicomedy about World War I containing a bitter indictment of war. Harry Heegan, a football hero who has won a coveted silver cup, the Silver Tassie, which for him symbolises victorious youth, loves beautiful Jessie Taite. Harry and Jessie drink the heady wine of love and victory from the cup before Harry must go back to the front. An expressionistic second act shows the horrors of the battlefield, and the succeeding two acts reveal the realistic consequences of that horror. The war kills and injures many who are dear to Harry, and he returns from it a wheelchair invalid whom Jessie drops for his healthy friend Barney. At a celebration of the Avondale Football Club after the war, the disabled wear their medals. Harry, symbolic of all soldiers, bitterly resents his lot, and in a moment of high ceremony he drinks wine, which resembles the blood shed in battle, from his old silver cup.
