Philip O'Byrne Never Going Back There

•

Hunters Moon Theatre brings Never Going Back There, a new Irish play by Philip O’Byrne, to The Everyman stage.The play depicts the story of a powerful Irish woman who would not allow religion, or the Magdalene laundries, to define her. She chose her own path of success and independence. Based on a true story, it exposes the stranglehold that religion had on Irish people in the 60s and 70s. But it also shows the determination and resilience of one young woman to break that hold and set out on her own path of success and independence in another country and to vow that she will “never go back there”. Philip spoke to Conor Tallon.
