Summary

Imagine no one loves you and you have to leave home with nothing. Where would you go? Would you feel free? Are you free at all if your 'choices' hurt?
A play that questions how everyone can be safe at the same time, Before You Say Anything is a time-travelling set of interweaving stories exploring injustice, freedom, and bravery.
Created by Carys D. Coburn with MALAPROP Theatre, it was first staged at the 2020 Dublin Fringe Festival.
MALAPROP Theatre is an award-winning collective of Irish theatremakers, who seek to challenge, delight and speak to the world we live in (even when imagining different ones).
'Subtle, timely and beautifully paced… riveting' - Irish Times
'Reminiscent of early Carly Churchill… This is thinking theatre at its best' - Irish Independent

    A once close-knit family of four is reunited after a long period of estrangement. This time, this time, it must go right.
In this touching and comic drama, Stephanie Jacob delves into the turmoil, love and compromises of kinship. Again resets the clock on one family's history as Tom and Louise – now divorced – and their adult children, Adam and Izzy, negotiate what they think they know and tussle for what they think they want.
Moving, funny and instantly recognisable, Again was first performed at Trafalgar Studios, London, in February 2018, in a production by Mongrel Thumb, and directed by Hannah Price.

    The Unraveling Strangeness - Poems

    A collection of poems about returning home by the war veteran and Pulitzer Prize finalist who is “one of the most important poets of our time” (Carolyn Forché, Guggenheim Fellow, on Archeology of the Circle).  The Unraveling Strangeness represents the record of a man in the middle of his life who comes back to his home after being away for twenty-five years. In these poems, we find odes to a disappearing New York City neighborhood and meditations on how national turmoil seeps into everyday consciousness. At stake in this journey is a rediscovery of deep and abiding connections to place, to family, and old friends.   A two-time Pushcart Prize–winner, Bruce Weigl’s collection The Abundance of Nothing was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. His poetry has been acclaimed by C. K. Williams as “powerful and frightening, poems [that] force us to repudiate our comfortable uncertainties, our drowsy vagueness.”
