'You were supposed to love me. You said it in front of sixty of our friends and family. Even my father cried.' Neil's come a long way from the Armagh Observer. But he's still restless. Back from Sudan with a head full of nightmares, he takes a hammer to his life. O GO MY MAN is set in contemporary Dublin: do-gooding celebrity chefs, twelve kinds of latte and a thousand Eastern European immigrants to pour them. The characters have enough trouble negotiating their own lives let alone a crisis unfolding in the wider world. With a mix of raw emotion and surreal humour - is love really all you need - or is it just a distraction? Stella Feehily's debut DUCK was co-produced by Out of Joint and the Royal Court. Other writing includes GAME (a short play for Fishamble Theatre Company) and SHE WAS WEARING A BLUE DRESS (Amnesty/Fishamble). "delightful a sharp-eyed, keen-eared piece of writing" Daily Telegraph [DUCK] Supported by JERWOOD NEW PLAYWRIGHTS "+www.outofjoint.co.uk+": www.outofjoint.co.uk Touring: Cambridge Arts Theatre; Nuffield Southampton; Birmingham Rep, Gardner Arts Centre, Brighton; Trinity Theatre, Tunbridge Wells; Yvonne Arnaud, Guildford and Bolton Octagon.
