Synopsis
And Then He Was All is a play about telling stories; a bunch of friends reconstruct the previous night while walking around North Dublin.
They talk about narrative imperative, wanting things to be neat and easy. Dave and Sarah talk about how sometimes you fancy people because you're expected to. Sam and Adam talk about how - annoying as it is - the people you want to hate probably don't deserve it. Dave and Adam talk about how good friends don't always look like they're good friends. Sam and Sarah talk about learning that you're not the main character. And everyone does cruel impressions of each other.
