Northern Ireland, 1990. Gerry is a young lad on the cusp of adulthood. Car park hangouts with his pal, tagging the chippy wall, dreaming of elsewhere. Usual teenage boy stuff.
But now, ten years after his brother’s murder, the killer is released under a new identity, the memorial garden has been destroyed, and a stranger has arrived in town. Gerry’s life is about to be swept away in the storm.
Winner of the Women’s Prize for Playwriting 2025, Georgina Duncan’s Sapling is a warm-hearted, funny and tender coming of age tale.
