Stewart Parker is one of Northern Ireland’s most witty, eloquent, and astute playwrights, yet his work for television is little known. This collection gathers, for the first time, the bulk of his television drama, offering a unique and exciting opportunity to encounter another dimension to Parker’s oeuvre. The plays in this volume exhibit the range and variety of his drama, which combines comedy and tragedy, the challenge of political and social themes, and the exuberance of pure fantasy.
