The Plough and The Stars – Bristol Old Vic
April 11 - April 18
A centenary staging of Seán O’Casey’s The Plough and The Stars is running in the Weston Studio of Bristol Old Vic this week.
The re-interpretation explores the 1916 Easter Rising in Ireland through a modern lens.
As the quest for Irish independence ignites the streets, O’Casey’s sharp wit and unflinching depiction of ordinary people, expose the conflict between nationalist idealism and the harsh struggle for survival.
The production is performed by graduating actors from the Bristol School of Acting and Technical Theatre Arts students.
