Washington Post names Solas Nua's production
"Pick of the Fringe"

La Corbiere premiered in the '89 Dublin Theatre Festival. One of its most recent stagings was a student production in Beirut! This play started life as a poem written in response to the tale of the fate of French prostitutes who were shipwrecked at Corbiere Lighthouse during WW2. Hartigan reworked the poem as a one act play for a cast of six. She also performed it as a one woman theatre piece (in Jersey Lilies) at The Samuel Beckett Theatre, Dublin.

"Anne Hartigan has articulated the submerged voices of women everywhere in a poignant interplay of words that express the gamut of women's emotions in daily life... Beautifully directed by Cathy Leeney." - Irish Press. See more reviews of this play
