THE BRIAR PATCH


By Ciara Elizabeth Smyth

Sunday 3 August, 8:00pm

A psychologist and an actor meet in the sea. Or did they? They can’t agree.

Dara and Gig have been happily married for decades. But one of them has done something unforgivable.

Facts are slippery. Feelings are filthy. And memories are unreliable.

This is a love story. A crime scene. Seasickness on solid ground.

The Briar Patch is a dissection of a relationship under pressure — a play about what we remember, what we misremember, and the devastating possibility that we were never really paying attention.
