Overview
Gerry Adams has disguised himself as a newborn baby and successfully
infiltrated my family home.
Eric Miller is a Belfast Loyalist. He
believes his five-week old granddaughter is Gerry Adams.
His
family keep telling him to stop living in the past and fighting old
battles that nobody cares about anymore, but his cultural heritage is
under siege. He must act. David Ireland's black comedy takes one man's
identity crisis to the limits as he uncovers the modern day complexity
of Ulster Loyalism.
Cyprus Avenue was first performed at the
Abbey Theatre, Dublin in 2016, before transferring to the Royal Court
Theatre, The MAC in Belfast and The Public Theater in New York.
