A Common Woman - Poster
A one-woman show with vivid comments on the female condition in three very different pieces. In one a woman dons pink and escapes domestic servitude to enjoy free love. In another a housewife turns on, drops out and joins a commune; smoking a joint she confesses all to a priest. In the third, sitting alone on a chair under a spotlight, in a quiet controlled voice, a woman relates her experience of a gang rape.
The Plays

A church in Dublin. Set in the early Seventies – in the aftermath of Flower Power and amongst the first stirrings of the Women’s Liberation Movement.
The Rape
The play is set anywhere, anytime, it could happen to any woman.
Coming Home
