PRIMAL is a new play by award-winning Cork writer Ciarán Collins, author of bestselling novel ‘The Gamal’, and the theatrical debut of award-winning screen director Shaun O Connor.

But as the narrative unfolds it becomes clear that there’s much more at stake -- for both parties. PRIMAL is a brutally honest examination of male relationships and power hierarchies, exploring the potential for darkness inside everyone - and how easily the veneer of civility can be wiped away when someone is pushed to their limits.
