  • Irish Premiere Notes

    Tar éis do Joan Littlewood diúltiú don dráma Béarla 'Richard's Cork Leg' a scríobh Behan, thairg sé leagan Gaeilge do Ghael Linn. Dhiúltaigh Frank Dermody é a léiriú mar, dar le Séamas Páircéir, bhraith sé go raibh sé tógtha suas ar fad le cúrsaí collaíochta agus le gáirsiúlacht agus nach raibh ann ach iarracht ar scannall a thabhairt don phobal d'aonghnó. Is cosúil gur aistriúchán an léiriú seo ar 'Richard's Cork Leg' seachas léiriú ar an mbundráma féin mar go bhfuil an teideal Béarla ar an bhfógra chomh maith leis an teideal Gaeilge.
