The Millennium Forum Derry presents
Carthaginians
By Frank McGuiness
Directed by Adrian Dunbar
Frank McGuinness’ Carthaginians has often been acknowledged as one of the enduring plays to have emerged from ‘The Troubles’. An elegy for Bloody Sunday in Derry, it is a tragedy of intense grief which becomes the unspoken subject through the personal journeys of three women and three men who camp out in a graveyard awaiting the resurrection of the dead. Dido is the outsider who brings daily pram loads of supplies including a script of his own attempt at a Troubles play, The Burning Balaclava, the comic centrepiece which is surrounded by jokes, quizzes and encounters which pass the time of waiting. Individual resurrections signal a community, like Carthage, rising from its ashes.
This production commemorates the 40th anniversary of Bloody Sunday and this production of Carthaginians celebrates the 10th anniversary of the Millennium Forum.
