his cheekbones so beautiful I have to close my eyes in case he blinds me
A young man relives the youth he spent in 'a refuge for wayward boys'. In his memories, the forces of faith, power and money dominate this starkly unsettling institution, where not everything is as it seems. The boys call it Gomorrah.
Gomorrah is a mirror to the contradictions of 1970s Ulster, a place where violence, control and desire meet. Now, years later, the man must make peace with his past to find his way in the world.
Do You Come From Gomorrah? opened at the Abbey Theatre, Dublin, in April 2026.
