Kaite O'Reilly

Multi-award winning playwright Kaite O'Reilly is in conversation about her most recent publication, Atypical Plays for Atypical Actors, published by Oberon. The first of its kind, this collection of six dramas redefines the notion of normalcy and extends the range of what it is to be human.

From monologues to performance texts to realist plays, these subversive pieces explore disability as a portal to new experience. Kaite will discuss this new publication which includes her 2015 Unlimited commission, Cosy, a darkly comic look at three generations of women as they share the joys and humiliations of getting older.
