This adaptation of one of Ireland’s most stunning recent literary debuts, A Ghost in the Throat, crosses centuries as it tells the story of one woman finding her voice by reaching into the past and summoning another's. An Irish noblewoman in the 1700s and a young mother in the present day, both touched by and adjacent to tragedy, make unexpected contact as parallels between their lives emerge. This is a chance to see a new WIP show from one of the UK and Ireland’s most exciting writers, as part of the Shed Originals programme.
