Production Description

A detachment of Royal Engineers from the British Army and Government have arrived in Baile Beag, an Irish-speaking community, to "standardize" Gaelic place names by translating them into English. Investigating the meaning of cultural expression and identity in an Ireland under British rule, Friel explores those questions through the significance of language on scales both large and small.
