A semi-detached house in an estate on the outskirts of a town in Ireland, late 60's, early 70's. Two married couples in their forties, small-talking in Hiberno-English… Smokes, booze, gossip - and an occasional suggestion of Valium. They know each other well, this foursome Nora and Maureen have been bosom friends down the years; Dick and Clem, drinking buddies, weekend boozers… So much for the status quo. Into this cosy quorum comes darling Ursula, eldest daughter to Dick and Nora, her agnostic boy friend in tow… and in jig time the status quo is upset, Big Time. Will a modern audience readily identify with this piece - setting, storyline, characters, mores? Hardly… The Ireland depicted no longer exists to any great extent. Times, attitudes, outlooks no longer hold sway as before in today’s world. Yet remnants of that closed, enclosed, society remain “What will the neighbours say?.. What will people think?.. Oh, the scandal! The shame! I won’t be able to lift my head…”

This is a very engaging and thought provoking read. The dialogue speeds along with great energy and passion. The play is full of sharp humour and wonderful humanity. The clash of cultures between the generations is powerfully portrayed. The author has captured a moment of tumultuous change in Irish urban culture and expressed it in a memorable way. It is a play that bears re- reading because issues of major cultural significance are being explored in the sparkling and powerful dialogue.Martin Hogan, Dublin City University
