The Story of the Man who Disappeared.

OVERVIEW

    Conall Quinn 

  • Synopsis

    What if Ireland had not remained neutral in the Second World War? This play imagines a shocking alternative history of 20th century Ireland, an Ireland in which an ultra-nationalist militia seizes power, sides with Nazi Germany and viciously persecutes the Irish Jewish community.
