Conversations on a Homecoming
Conversations on a Homecoming was the third Druid production of the work of then-Writer-in-Association, Tom Murphy, continuing on from the company’s presentation of Famine in 1984 and later that year, his one-act play, On The Outside.
Over a long drinking session in an East Galway pub a group of friends gather together after an absence of ten years. Faced with the changes the years have wrought, they begin a long process of self-discovery.
‘The best theatre company in the land…Druid triumph yet again…a magic night of theatre,a thundering segment of true life’- Irish Press
‘Conversations’ works like a dream and its freshness and sharpness and canny humour are a pure delight’- New Galway Observer
