Rough Magic begins a regular series of play readings – some familiar, others new to Irish audiences. These are powerful, thought-provoking plays that moved the dial when they were first staged, challenging ideas and showcasing the power of great dramatic writing. They remind us just how thrilling, limitless, and ambitious theatre writing can be when visionary playwrights and talented performers bring it to life.
This funny, trenchant, and powerful play follows an ambitious group of editorial assistants at a notorious Manhattan magazine, each of whom hopes for a starry life of letters and a book deal before they turn thirty. But when an ordinary humdrum workday becomes anything but, the stakes for who will get to tell their story become higher than ever. Finalist for the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
