Three women in the immediate aftermath of a life-changing choice

Set in the recovery ward of an abortion clinic in the UK, a young English solicitor and two Irish women – one a married mother of three and one an eighteen-year-old on her first foray out of Ireland – spend a disorienting night together as they wait for morning and their release from a self-imposed purgatory.

Revelations, arguments, and silly songs take them to dawn as they look into a changed future.

Afterwards is a timely new play exploring the consequences of Repeal the 8th, a culture-changing movement, while resonating internationally with the current turmoil surrounding reproductive rights worldwide.
