Banished Children of Eve
Full Length Drama, 3W, 5M
Commissioned by Irish Repertory Theatre in New York and adapted from the novel by Peter Quinn, Banished Children of Eve tells a theatrical story of Irish-American and African-American characters struggling to survive the bloodiest urban riots in our country's history. Set against the backdrop of Uncle Tom's Cabin and the Civil War, these itinerant actors and artists, lovers and swindlers come face to face with who they were, who they are, and who they desperately want to be.
