Playwrights Local Presents A Free Staged Reading *INISFREE* *Written by Margaret LynchDirected by Caroline Jackson Smith* *Monday, September 16 at 7:00 pm* Free with no tickets or reservations required Open to the public | Recommended for adults & teens http://www.playwrightslocal.org/fall-roundtable-series-2019/ *Synopsis:* Two women in their 30s—an American cousin, recently divorced, and an Irish cousin, who has recently left the convent—come together in Ireland in the summer of 1986, when Ireland is about to vote on a referendum to legalize divorce. Both women are in a state of personal crisis, but the Irish cousin’s struggles with manic depression are coming to a head. A series of interspersed “ancestor monologues”—snapshots of women from their shared family past—provide a historical counterpoint as the two women confront conflicts between responsibility to self and others.
