A half day encounter in which we look at a selection of famous mature roles in Irish Drama. It will be an opportunity to see from a variety of angles how Irish playwrights have depicted characters in the older age category. (50+) This will be interactive with everyone encouraged to offer observations and, if people wish, to read/perform speeches from these characters.
