'The Loved Ones' Comes to Dunamaise 

'The Loved Ones' Comes to Dunamaise 

The Loved Ones

Rough Magic and the Gate Theatre are delighted to announce that Erica Murray’s THE LOVED ONES, directed by Ronan Phelan will play Dunamaise Arts Centre, Portlaoise as part of an 8 venue NASC tour this spring.

In a remote renovated farmhouse, Nell prepares to scatter her son’s ashes with her grieving daughter-in-law, Orla, while Cheryl-Ann, a visitor from America, settles in for an idyllic break in the wilds of West Clare.

However, their weekend plans will be turned upside down when an unexpected guest arrives looking for shelter, solace and understanding.

In this beautiful play full of hope, humour and humanity, a situation as unlikely as it is inevitable will send these four lives reeling, leaving them questioning the true nature of love, loss and birds.

THE LOVED ONES originally premiered at The Gate Theatre as part of Dublin Theatre Festival 2023. Rough Magic and The Gate Theatre are proudly supported by the Arts Council.
