This book features three more plays by Tomás Ó’Riain.
Apple Annie: Apple Annie tells a great tale of a normal woman selling apples and second hand clothes from a stall in Dublin’s Iveagh markets and manages to be a secret benefactor to the educational needs of her three step-sisters. A great story full of heart.
Milo’s Ghost: Milo’s Ghost is based on a true tale from early 1920’s Ireland. The manner of Milo’s death is a replica of that which occurred back then and in those times they did not have the advantages of Exorcisms or Séances!! A hilarious three act comedy.
What the Puck: What the Puck! A long lost rich uncle from Australia who may not be all that he seems. A stone digging pot bellied pig. A long lost treasure. The marriage proposal to the Widow Cassidy who has a large Endowment policy, or does she?? A mad cap comedy and is definitely one for the amateur drama company that likes a laugh.
