Not Beckett, The Plays: Female and Non-binary Irish Playwrights Respond: Methuen Drama Play Collections

Autor Olwen Fouéré, Jennifer Barclay, FELISPEAKS, Nicola McCartney, Hannah Khalil
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 iul 2025
Five new short plays, including author commentaries, from female and non-binary writers of Irish heritage in response to Samuel Beckett.

What does Irish heritage mean to members of the modern-day diaspora? Global playwrights Olwen Fouéré, Jennifer Barclay, FELISPEAKS, Nicola McCartney and Hannah Khalil make their mark with five unique pieces loosely inspired by seeds from the Beckett canon.

Originally staged for the international Not Beckett festival 2024-25, a festival created by writers Hannah Khalil and Jennifer Barclay to expand on the idea of what Irishness looks and sounds like. Premiering in October 2024 at London's Jermyn Street Theatre, the plays were then staged internationally with partners on the project: The Samuel Beckett Research Centre in Reading, the Irish Repertory Theatre in New York, Fishamble in Dublin in collaboration with the Lir Academy, and Villanova University in Philadelphia, PA, amongst others.

Each short play provides an ideal vehicle for students and readers to further explore the artistic influence of Samuel Beckett's work through a modern-day, multicultural lens. The collection is introduced by Dr Matthew McFrederick, Co-Director of the Beckett International Foundation at the University of Reading, who considers the plays in the anthology and their impact.
