NYC Frigid Festival - Update #1

One of the first fifteen applicants to be accepted into the 2009 NYC Frigid Festival, The Giant's Causeways will be making its first New York City staged appearance during the months of February and March.

A play loosely based on a story my father told me, growing up in a war-torn Belfast, during an era known as The Troubles, and having experienced internment and interrogation. The play began as a monologue, morphed itself into a short story and has settled into its current one-act form.

The play questions: can a friendship between a Catholic and a Protestant withstand what is going on politically around them?

Information on the festival can be found at: http://www.frigidnewyork.info/

The Giant's Causeways Nora S. McLaughlin Montclair NJ USA
A story about two boys growing up in Belfast, Ireland between 1969 and 1971 amidst the political struggles of that time and how their friendship is affected. $12.00
