The End of Year Show

OVERVIEW

  • Playwright

    Damian Gorman 

  • Synopsis

    While the rest of the country chews over the bones of a bad year, an unlikely collection of people in an alcohol treatment unit reveal their own circumstances, in ways which are often painfully funny. When strict and controlling Dr Truesdale unwillingly leaves his charges in the care of Dr Marie Cull (his fourth choice), she turns the residents, the unit and the year on their heads, offering an antidote to Limbo – if only for a couple of days.
