THE HOSTAGE
By Brendan Behan
Performed at the Maskers Bassett Studio in 1976
Kenneth Tynan of the OBSERVER wrote:
“It seems to be Ireland's function, every twenty years or so, to provide a playwright who will kick English drama from the past into the present. Behan may well fill the place vacated by Sean O’Casey."
