MAGPIE

Blood Ties Torn by War, Bound by Fate. A Gripping New Drama by Andrew Cusack Presented at the ICC – London’s Premiere Centre for Irish Arts & Culture Two Brothers Divided by Hate. Reunited by Fate. Set within the cold, haunted walls of Kilmainham Gaol during the height of Ireland’s Civil War in 1923, Magpie tells the searing story of Michael and Patrick Murphy—brothers on opposite sides of a bitter, blood-soaked divide. One, a battle-scarred IRA gunman. The other, a Free State jailer. As their worlds collide, Magpie dives deep into fractured loyalties, the brutality of war, and the human cost of a divided nation.
