Synopsis
Irish-language theatre has at times been on the fringes of Ireland's cultural landscape - invisible and underground - but its influence can be seen all over the island of Ireland. An Underground Theatre is the first full-length study of playwrights working in the Irish language in the pivotal 1930-80 period. In this landmark volume Philip O'Leary analyses the works of Máiréad Ní Ghráda, Séamus Ó Néill, Eoghan Ó Tuairisc, Seán Ó Tuama, and Críostóir Ó Floinn and discusses the production history of their plays and the critical reception of first productions and major revivals. O'Leary also outlines the beginnings of drama in Irish in the early twentieth century and provides important historical context. The developments in Irish-language theatre since 1980 are also discussed in this important contribution to Irish theatre studies. Using a wide range of sources, O'Leary gives a thorough evaluation of five of the most significant Irish-language playwrights and charts the influence and reach of their work. The book also contains images from this exciting period of Irish theatre history. Book jacket., The first full-length study of playwrights working in the Irish language in the pivotal 1930-80 period.

- r***b (120)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseGraphic novel album was sealed, NM, great value. Seller was great and responsive to communication. Item initially did not arrive despite tracking and me calling USPS, and seller was willing to provide refund to make it right. Ultimately the package showed up days later, which was baffling; seller provided A+ customer service through all of this. Thank You!
- n***i (5)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseMy statue was exactly as described, it was un-opened and in perfect condition! Totally wirth the price. Getting it shipped took a little long but the seller was very responsive when I messaged and sent me the tracking as soon as it was available. Plus they did a good job packaging it well enough that despite being banged up on the outside my item was completely undamaged.
- 2***0 (4)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe basket is perfectly what I ordered and as listed. It came in the factory packaging and was perfect upon delivery. Thank you postal service lol. The delivery took way longer than listed though, it was listed to come in a week from purchase, but took a whole month. I had some concerns at first, but communication with the company was top notch and they were very professional and answered most of my questions satisfyingly. Just prepare for a longer wait than listed, but I got what I bought lol.
