The Play

Presley and Haley, two siblings, live in a squalid flat in a ruined world. Their parents seem to have died years ago, and now they wile away a schizophrenic existence by feeding off chocolate and ‘Mum and Dad’s medicine’. One day however, an interloper appears, and things start to go very wrong.

The Group


Founded in 2015 in Leixlip Salmon Eile has put on numerous shows in Leixlip and the greater Dublin area, with the goal of challenging their audience and themselves. The group has competed in the One Act All Ireland on three occasions, with their best result being in 2015 when they finished 2nd in the All-Ireland finals with “Virtual Reality” by Alan Arkin. Other favourite plays performed by the group include “Gum and Goo” by Howard Brenton, “Bouncers” by John Godber, “Stags and Hens” by Willy Russell and “Bad Sunday” by Mark Wale. The Pitchfork Disney will be the first time Salmon Eile have competed on the 3-act circuit.
