The Mundy Scheme
by Brian Friel
Synopsis
Ireland has a new leader and a cabinet minister presents a scheme for prosperity.
Offer the bogs and unproductive areas to sentimental Irishmen abroad as a final resting place.
The scheme gains momentum and infighting begins.
After a great deal of treachery and double-dealing, the leader ends up as the only one who'll profit from the scheme.
