Synopsis

"Only an Apple" is a lusty and disquieting tale of an ailing playboy Taoiseach. On the brink of being overthrown by upstart Government Chief Whip McPhrunty, the Taoiseach must act fast. Enter surprise guests - Queen Elizabeth the First and Grace O'Malley. The brazen administrations of these fantasy creatures wreak havoc among the men. Are these women sexual playthings or more sinister messengers of fate? Tom Mac Intyre is one of the most daring and original Irish writers working today. His new play, "Only an Apple", takes us on a characteristically mischievous and theatrical journey between our world and that of the imagination. It is full of the sombre colours and comedic ri-ra of "What Happened Bridgie Cleary", "The Gallant John-Joe" and "Good Evening Mr. Collins".
