Pump Girl

2007-08 SEASON

FINAL PERFORMANCE WAS January 13th, 2008

By Abbie Spallen
Directed by Carolyn Cantor

with Hannah Cabell, Geraldine Hughes, Paul Sparks

In this gripping play from one of Ireland’s brightest new talents, playwright Abbie Spallen shapes a startling tale of three lives colliding in rural Ireland. The play unfolds with the story of a homely, tomboyish pump girl at a rundown gas station. When a local racetrack star becomes the focus of her obsession, the affair threatens more than the feelings of his disenchanted wife. A blazing success last season in Edinburgh and at London’s renowned Bush Theatre, the play is in the best tradition of richly detailed and unforgettable Irish storytelling.
