Everyone
recognises the postcard of 'An Irish Donkey' produced by John Hinde (Postcard
Co.) in the early 1960s. Hinde's famous images of Ireland, its donkeys,
horse and traps, haystacks and landscapes have become famous throughout
the whole world. If you've got any old or new postcards depicting Ireland,
would you be willing to loan them to Irish Centre for this fascinating
exhibition? We need them!! So please can you send them to us, or contact

Lucy thinks she's finally cracked
the love thing - Joe, her handsome American boyfriend is moving over to
London. So how come he seems to be heading for the emergency exit? Lucy's
best friend Scarlet is on an endless carousel of losers, users and married
men. Her Dad just thinks we're all better off flying solo. But when mysterious
Kiwi Gabriel arrives in their midst and starts showing an unhealthy interest
in Lucy, it seems that everyone's baggage is finally coming out on display.
What does it take to escape the past?
And what can you do when people just make you sick?

An Urn. 13 objects. Ordinary. Everyday.
But what if one was capable of inspiring tears? Or a great passion? Even
a war? Even the simplest object can
invoke disturbing memories and extreme feelings. In
Howard Barker’s intriguing new play, powerful poetic language, provocative
ideas and rich, dark humour build a compelling picture of the secret lives
of everyday objects. Applauded all
over Europe for his controversial exploration of the extremes of human
behaviour, Howard Barker's pungent poetic language overflows with exhilarating
ideas, beauty, violence and dark comedy.
