Irish Stories

Katie Wilmot already has enough problems. Patrick Feely has plenty of his own. Between family expectations, secrets, and the weight they're both carrying, neither of them is looking for another complication. Especially not each other. Especially not when Katie is already with someone else. His best friend. And Patrick already has a line he swore he'd never cross. And that was the problem from the start.

Everyone remembers the Lynch fire. Everyone remembers the bodies carried out. But no one remembers the boy left standing in the middle of it all. Tadhg Lynch isn't the golden Lynch boy. He isn't the baby who got shielded from the worst, or the oldest who carved a new life with a family of his own. He's the one in between. The one who saw everything, took the blows meant for his younger brothers, and carried scars no one wanted to look too closely at. Brave. Bold. Mouthy. A joker when he can manage it. And broken enough that nothing ever really sticks. Bethany Gibson is the girl who shouldn't have lived. She was three when the water took her under, when her father gave his life to save hers. She grew up in the shadow of grief, wrapped in the protection of a brother who bled for her in ways she only half understands. Sweet, funny, too kind for her own good-Bethany knows what it is to survive, but not yet what it means to live. When Bethany collides with Tadhg at Tommen, it's fire meeting oxygen-sharp words, sharp looks, a pull neither of them can shake. He's crude, cruel with his jokes, too much for anyone to handle. She's soft where he's jagged, sunshine where he's ash. He calls her Barbie. She calls him an arsehole. And somewhere between the laughs and the fights, they start to see the cracks in each other. But fixing what's shattered isn't simple. Not when trauma festers. Not when grief never loosens its grip. Not when love means putting your hands into the fire all over again. Funny. Raw. Heartbreaking. Fixing 9 is a story about the girl who wouldn't stop caring, the boy who didn't know how to be cared for, and the brutal, beautiful mess of trying to save each other when the world already tried to burn or drown you alive.

Grace has everything she needs. A life she loves, friends who make her laugh, and a playlist for every mood. The last thing she needs is disruption, and the last person she expects to bring it is Conor Hayes - Dublin-born, Hollywood-made, and one of the most famous men Ireland exported right now. When their worlds collide back home in Ireland, what starts as an inconvenient attraction becomes something neither of them planned for...Some love stories just don't follow a script.

Florence Carson has spent most of her life surviving. Growing up with an alcoholic and abusive mother left her carrying scars that no one can see. When things finally become unbearable, Florence escapes to live with her father and older brother, hoping for a fresh start and a chance to rebuild the life she's never truly had. What she doesn't expect is Hayden O'Brien. As her brother's best friend, Hayden is everything she should stay away from: guarded, mysterious and carrying secrets of his own. He keeps everyone at arm's length, refusing to let anyone get close. But from the moment Florence enters his life, something begins to change. As their friendship grows into something deeper, Florence and Hayden find comfort in each other's broken pieces. Together, they learn that healing isn't about forgetting the past- it's about finding someone willing to face it with you. When old wounds and long-buried secrets threaten to tear them apart, they'll have to decide if love is strong enough to overcome everything they've been through.

Saoirse O'Sullivan. X. Cian walsh {pronounced: SEER-sha. {pronounced: KEY-an Ccoh SULL-ivan}. WALL-sh} Saoirse O'Sullivan is the kind of girl people think they understand until they look a little closer. Loud, sharp, and impossible to ignore, she hides the quiet suffocation of a life controlled by appearances and expectations. With a mother who molds her and a father who barely notices, Saoirse has learned to perform-confidence as armor, humor as deflection. She thrives in chaos, clinging tightly to friendships that feel like family, yet there's always something restless beneath her skin, a sense that her body, her life, has never fully belonged to her. She is fire wrapped in silk-bright, reckless, and slowly burning out. Cian Walsh, on the other hand, is the kind of boy people overlook until it's too late. Withdrawn and unpredictable, he carries anger like it's stitched into his bones, shaped by a home where silence and control speak louder than love. He doesn't explode-he simmers, sharp-edged and dangerous in the quietest ways. Once surrounded by friends, now distant from most, Cian exists on the outskirts, finding solace in simple things like rugby or long walks with his dog. He isn't trying to be difficult; he just doesn't know how to be anything else. To most, he's trouble. To himself, he's just surviving. Together, they are something volatile and inevitable. Saoirse's chaos meets Cian's restraint, her noise clashing against his silence until something cracks between them. They understand each other in ways no one else does-not because they're the same, but because they recognize the damage. Where she is too much, he is not enough, and somehow they meet in the middle, messy and imperfect. It's not soft, not easy, and definitely not safe-but it's real. And for two people who have spent their lives pretending, that might be the most dangerous thing of all.

For hundreds of years, the Otherworld flourished beneath an ancient pact between, the land, and the mysterious Aos Sí. King Ciarán in his quest for domination and power broke that pact destroying the sacred Bile trees. Now sacred groves stand silent. Rivers run black with corruption. The old magic is fading, and fear rules from the throne. Hidden beyond the veil of the mortal world, the Aos Sí have spent years waiting for a prophecy to be fulfilled-a prophecy foretelling a daughter of the land who will rise against the tyrant and awaken the kingdom once more. When a young woman discovers she can hear the voices of trees and command the power of the living earth, she becomes the spark that ignites a rebellion. Hunted by the king's forces and burdened by a destiny she never asked for, she must unite a fractured kingdom before darkness consumes it forever. Her greatest ally is Fionn, a warrior of the Aos Sí as beautiful as he is dangerous. Three hundred years of waiting have left him doubtful of prophecies and wary of hope. Yet as ancient magic stirs and war draws near, he finds himself drawn to the one woman who sees beyond his immortal glamour. Together they must awaken forgotten powers, forge an alliance between the fae forces, and challenge a king whose roots reach deeper than anyone suspects. For some prophecies are not meant to be fulfilled. They are meant to be fought for.

When Nessa tries to remember her late Uncle Brendan, she discovers that memory is far less interested in facts than it is in love When Nessa was a child, Brendan was the centre of every family gathering. A red-bearded uncle who fixed broken toys, applauded spectacularly imperfect gymnastics routines, sang "King of the Road" with complete confidence regardless of key, and made every child feel as though nothing in the world mattered more than the small thing they had placed in his hands. As an adult, Nessa begins to understand the silences that surrounded him. The conversations that stopped when children entered the room. The disappearances no one explained. The worry hidden beneath ordinary family dinners. Moving between childhood memory and adult reflection, Nessa reconstructs the man her family loved but could never fully understand. As old memories repeat, contradict, soften, and sharpen, she slowly realizes that growing up has not replaced wonder with truth. It has simply revealed that love is rarely uncomplicated. THE UNICORN is an intimate memory play about childhood mythmaking, addiction, grief, family silence, tenderness, and emotional inheritance. It asks whether we honour the people we love by explaining them, forgiving them, or allowing them to remain beautifully unfinished. Inspired by the playwright's own memories and family history, this play is rooted in real people, places, and emotional truths. Characters, chronology, dialogue, circumstances, and other elements have been imagined, combined, or altered for dramatic purposes.
