About this Book

I'm Fionn Mac Cumhaill, I'm Michael Collins,
I'm Theobald Wolfe Tone ... That's it! ...
I'm Wolfe Tone!
The Black Wolfe Tone.
I'm the Black Wolfe Tone!

The Black Wolfe Tone is a thrilling new play about identity, raging against the machine, and how young men deal or don't deal, with the darkness. A fast-paced journey that interrogates our culture of silence, the mind, and growing up mixed race in Ireland. At its heart, it's about a young boy seeking forgiveness. The inner child wanting only to be acknowledged, loved, and held.

This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere production by Fishamble and Irish Repertory Theatre, in New York and on tour in Ireland, in 2025.
