Five of Northern Ireland’s most inventive female playwrights were commissioned by Origin Theatre Company in 2020 to write five monologues for women inspired by Belfast’s iconic landmark, the Albert Clock and to imagine their stories taking place in the year 2050.
This year, The Lyric Theatre produced the new works as a collection of radio plays. “Under the Albert Clock” was first presented as a staged reading in the 2020 Origin 1st Irish’s “Next Generation Series.”
