Free next Monday, October 22?

The world premiere of a new stage adaptation of A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man takes place at Cork’s Everyman Theatre (until October 24).

The Everyman writes:

Rough Magic will present James Joyce’s first novel in Arthur Riordan’s vibrant new stage adaptation brought to life by a dynamic, new, creative ensemble of actors and designers under Ronan Phelan’s direction.

Rough Magic’s ensemble cast will take us on a thrilling theatrical odyssey around Ireland from Galway to Waterford and from Letterkenny to Tralee, towards the liberation of the soul and its rejection of faith and fatherland.

The central role of Stephen Dedalus will be played by multiple members of the ensemble, both male and female.
