Rental crisis at heart of Ray Scannell's new play

Ray Scannell was inspired by his own tribulations in the rental sector to write a play about a man who moves back in with his parents, says Colette Sheridan.

Inspired by his own experience of the rental crisis, Dublin-based actor, writer and musician, Ray Scannell — originally from Cork — has written and composed the music for The Bluffer’s Guide to Suburbia.

Scannell stars in the three-hander as Finn who left the Dublin suburbs 20 years ago to pursue a career on the indie music circuit in London.
