Synopsis

Brian and Donna's son is nine years old and he's struggling.

That's what his teacher says.

Says he should see a psychologist.

But Brian and Donna -- recently separated -- never liked school, never liked teachers.

After a sold-out run in the Dublin Theatre Festival 2017, the play transferred to the Abbey Theatre, Dublin, in January 2018 before playing in the Traverse Theatre as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2018.

CLASS won Best Theatre Script at the 2018 ZeBBie Awards awarded by the Writers Guild of Ireland.
