Award-winning novel ‘Asking For It’ to hit Cork's Everyman stage

The novel is to be adapted for the stage for the first time in what is expected to be a technically ambitious production at the Everyman Theatre, thanks to funding to be announced today by the Arts Council.
The funding will be used to adapt and produce the stage version of the controversial novel by West Cork author and Irish Examiner columnist Louise O’Neill which deals with the shattering impact on a teenager of a horrific act of sexual violence which takes place in a small Irish town.
