Pumpgirl

Midwest Premiere

Abbie Spallen’s Pumpgirl takes us on a turbo charged raced through the diesel fumes and country music of the borderlands between Northern and Southern Ireland. This explosively comic play jolts into high gear as three lives careen wildly and compellingly out of control. Drink, dirty love and clapped-out motors set the backdrop for charting the humors and horrors that grow out of the utter lack of options and imagination in these Armagh badlands. Sometimes love is blind; sometimes it’s just this desperate.
