Sink (NHB Modern Plays)

Sink is a play of two voices for one actor, about memory, catastrophe and sacrifice. Brid's coming home to convalesce after drying out in rehab. Ciara's headed west too, investigating a potential archaeological site on a parched area of bogland. But as the countryside swelters in a heatwave, the pair find peace elusive. How will Brid cope in her old haunts? How will Ciara confront a past she thought forgotten? And will they unearth the hidden truth that binds them together?Sink premiered at the Dublin Fringe Festival in 2019, directed by Thomas Martin.
