Sinossi

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). This volume brings together four of their bold, playful and genre-spanning plays, all premiered at the Dublin Fringe Festival between 2017 and 2023.
In Everything Not Saved, ex-lovers argue about when they were happiest, police officers rewrite history, and Rasputin dances like no one's watching. Oh, and also the Queen is there.
Before You Say Anything questions how everyone can be safe at the same time. A time-travelling set of interweaving stories exploring injustice, freedom and bravery.
Where Sat the Lovers is about codes, hallucinations, Isaac Newton, war crimes, seeing meaning where there's none and vice versa. In an age of misinformation, how do you know if you know the right things?
HOTHOUSEtackles climate breakdown with big ideas, a lot of laughs, and some truly grotesque cabaret numbers. Cruise ships, horny/murderous songbirds, fecund/fatalistic rabbits, loving/bruising parents and Minnie Riperton all make an appearance in this play with songs, which asks if things can ever get better.
MALAPROP Theatre are Carys D. Coburn, John Gunning, Breffni Holahan, Molly O'Cathain, Maeve O'Mahony, Claire O'Reilly and Carla Rogers.
'MALAPROP have quickly distinguished themselves as one of Ireland's most exciting emerging companies' Ruth McGowan, Director, Dublin Fringe Festival (2018-23)
'A company of real ambition. One which is using theatrical form to grapple with the complexities of a world where the ground is constantly shifting beneath our feet and where what we believe can be recalibrated not just on a daily basis but minute by minute' Lyn Gardner, Stage Door
'Reminiscent of early Caryl Churchill... this is thinking theatre at its best'Irish Independent

    Can Luke learn to love the man who left him? 
     
     
     
    Headmaster Luke Lawson is committed to saving his boarding school before a cash crisis sinks it. He'll do anything to keep it afloat, even if that means accepting help from the man who broke his heart at uni. 
     
     
     
    Nathan's offer to teach for free could be a blessing as long as Luke can harden his bruised heart. That's tough when they'll need to share living quarters and have a history of hook-ups. But Luke knows being compatible in bed isn't enough to build trust. It can't be when Nathan has always left him before morning. 
     
     
     
    This time around, it feels different. Nathan's work overseas has changed him. Touched him. Opened a locked chamber in his heart that Luke is beginning to think must have been bruised in the past too. 
     
     
     
    As pressure mounts, can Luke trust that Nathan's committed this time—not only to his school but to a shared future with him long term?

    I wish I knew why I was born with the mark of a half-moon, but I was abandoned at the edge of a forest as a baby. Leading my forest army into war and fighting for my people is all that matters. I don't need family and friends because I love my bow and arrow and I certainly don't have time for relationships or sex.
    
    
    At least, it's how things used to be. Nothing has been the same ever since the pretty witch Marwa chased me until we fought. Now I can't sleep without thinking about how she kissed me or the embarrassing way she played with my body. And I allowed her to do those things! I should be ashamed of myself, but I can't stop thinking about her.
    
    
    There's more. The river and trees are dying and the moon had cracked into two. Everyone says the witches are to blame. How can the rift be healed? My people and Marwa's have been enemies since time began. Is it too late to stop the rot?

    In a town full of ghosts, it's the living who haunt your heart. 
     
    Since moving to the quirky coastal town of Willowhope, Skylar Reign's life has been nothing short of magical. 
     
    He's building his dream interior design business from the bones up. His ride-or-die bestie is a psychic medium who appreciates his flair for the dramatic. His new mentor is a quirky clairvoyant who drops hints like bread crumbs. 
     
    And somehow—between coffee dates with ghosts and battle plans that double as family dinners—Skylar has found a home. A real one. The kind made up of oddballs, outcasts, and otherworldly beings who show up, meddle in your love life, and refuse to let you fall apart. All that's missing is Kingston Porter. 
     
    Grumpy and stubborn as hell, Kingston is Skylar's guarded friend—and the one man he's secretly in love with. But Kingston's getting pulled deeper into dangerous dreamscapes tied to a mysterious mansion, and whatever's lurking there isn't just a nightmare. It's real. And it's hungry. 
     
    To survive what's coming, Skylar and Kingston will need more than each other. They'll need the whole weird and wonderful crew that's claimed them as their own—psychics, spirits, found family and all. 
     
    Because in Willowhope? Love might save you—but found family fights beside you.

    Can Austin learn to love the opposite who attracts him? 
     
     
     
    Austin Russell doesn't belong at a small school like Glynn Harber. He's meant to be a highflyer in finance, not a book-keeping bursar. Now there's only one renovation project left to budget, it's time he toughened his soft heart and got back to climbing the corporate ladder. 
     
     
     
    The truth is he'd rather climb Maisie Dymond's father. 
     
     
     
    That urge doesn't add up—Dom Dymond is his polar opposite—but when a near-miss brings them together, Austin discovers there's more below his laid-back surface, especially as Dom's determined to win the bid for the school's last rebuilding project. 
     
     
     
    Working in proximity means Austin can't deny that they're opposites who don't only attract, they combust whenever they're close. Telling himself it's only a fling doesn't ring true when Dom opens up about what keeps him in Cornwall. He's there to heal his fractured family, and he wants Austin as part of it. 
     
     
     
    That openness makes Austin want to share too, but will Dom still feel the same attraction once he knows what drives Austin to keep climbing his ladder?

    Archie Knowles has been in love with his hot fireman neighbor, Sean Waverly since he moved into the same apartment building. Sean is rugged muscular and oh so sexy.
    And gay. When Archie first moved in, Sean propositioned him. Archie said no, because Archie wanted a love relationship and Sean ...he just wanted sex. So though they've lived near each other for months, they've only ever been friends. 
    But when Archie faces the disappointment of not getting a promotion at work, he is through not getting what he wants and he makes a proposition of his own to Sean: He wants hot, wild, animalistic sex. 
    Sean doesn't believe Archie wants the friends with benefits arrangement proposed, but Archie has vowed to go elsewhere if Sean won't accommodate him. Sean can't let someone else have Archie, so he gives in to the cute twink. Wild, animalistic sex may just be hiding love.
