Cork play makes debut in New York

The American premiere of Cork writer Conal Creedon’s play, The Cure, takes place at New York’s Green Room Theatre on Sept 9 and will run for at least a month.

Cork play makes debut in New York

It’s part of Creedon’s trilogy of plays, The Second City Trilogy, commissioned by the European Capital of Culture in 2005 and first produced at the Half Moon in Cork.

Creedon, who is currently nearing completion of a novel, says that if it wasn’t for Michael Mellamphy, a Cork-born actor based in New York, his trilogy, published in book form, “would be sitting in a drawer”. Mellamphy has starred in the New York productions of the other two plays from the trilogy, When I was God and After Luke.
