The Black Wolfe Tone
is a thrilling new play about identity, raging against the machine, and how young men deal or dont deal, with the darkness. A fast-paced journey that interrogates our culture of silence, the mind, and growing up mixed race in Ireland. At its heart, its about a young boy seeking forgiveness. The inner child wanting only to be acknowledged, loved, and held.

This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere production by Fishamble and Irish Repertory Theatre, in New York and on tour in Ireland, in 2025.
