Ruth returns to rural Ireland from America, where she's become a successful businesswoman. Her arrival rattles the skeletons in the family cupboard.

The female protagonist and the Irish setting make for a fresh slant on a familiar theme...Commissioned by Rough Magic, Ireland's leading company devoted to new writing, Midden will premiere at the Edinburgh Festival in August before touring Ireland and playing at the Dublin Theatre Festival in October.
