Book Synopsis

Any day now
Boy's on the way now.

From the creator of Dublin Oldschool comes a poetic and musical journey about family, love and the sound of our voices.

Accents is a transformative new show about the arrival of new life, the families we try to create, the families we may never have, and young generations living a life delayed.

Written by Emmet Kirwan, composed by Eoin French and directed by Claire O'Reilly, this play presents a powerful, poetic journey through a gentrified city.

This edition is published to coincide with a new tour in January 2025.
