Tina's Idea of Fun

Just wanna be a better mother, thats all some sort of a decent mother. Tina cant get through to her son. Stuck on the drink and tormented by her past, what will she do to get his attention? Paddy is a quiet man just looking for someone to talk to. Hes a Republican, but hell shake his fist at anything these days. When Queen Elizabeth II makes her first visit to Ireland, Tinas post-protest party brings out the worst in everyone. What lengths will people go to, to make a connection? Tinas Idea of Fun was first published to coincide with the world premiere on the Peacock stage of The Abbey Theatre, Dublin in April 2016.
