Solas Nua is proud to produce the Washington premiere of "Maz and Bricks" by Eva O’Connor, an award-winning new playwright from Ireland. "Maz and Bricks" is a passionate, angry, funny and touching play which tells the story of two young people who meet over the course of a day in Dublin. Maz is attending a 'Repeal the Eighth' demonstration, while Bricks is going to meet the mother of his young daughter. As the day unfolds, the two become unlikely friends, changing each other in ways they never thought possible. Maz and Bricks delves deep into the issue of reproductive rights in Ireland to ask what does it mean to be alive in Ireland today and what really makes it all worthwhile? Eva O’Connor’s work has won the prestigious Fringe First and a Lustrum Award at The Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and she was named as one of Broadcast’s Hot Shots, which celebrated the outstanding work of women under 30 making waves in the TV industry.
