Here's a look at the plays:

Based in the 1970s in County Galway, West of Ireland, Conversations on a Homecoming is about a man named Michael and his return to his home town after a ten-year absence. Upon his sudden return from New York working as an actor, Michael has a reunion with old friends in the familiar pub called “The White House.” Over a long drinking session, the friends are faced with the changes the years have wrought and begin a process of self-discovery.

Set in 1960, A Whistle in the Dark tells the story of Michael Carney, an Irish emigrant living in Coventry, England and his wife, Betty. Michael has given lodgings to three of his brothers. The imminent arrival of his father and younger brother cause tensions in the family to boil over. Famine is set in County Mayo, Glanconnor village, West of Ireland in 1846. When the second crop of potatoes fails, the community faces the real prospect of starvation. John Connor, head of the family, leader of the village, son of glorious forefathers, is surrounded by starvation and poverty. He will do the right thing—by himself, by God, and by his family.

DruidMurphy has costume design by Joan O'Clery, lighting design by Chris Davey, sound design by Gregory Clarke, music by Sam Jackson and dramaturgy by Thomas Conway.
