In 2021 with the support of the Creative Ireland Roscommon programme and in association with the members of Roscommon Drama Group as part of our Kaleidoscope programme, Roscommon Arts Centre produced two plays for radio, under the direction of Enda Oates. Lady Gregory’s “Spreading the News” is a one-act comedy of rumour and misinterpretation, set in a small town in rural Ireland where gossip is prevalent. “The Tinker’s Wedding” by John Millington Synge tells the story of Sarah Casey, a young tinker woman, who makes a bid for respectability by marrying the father of her children, despite the scorn of his mother.
