The Irish in New York, NY

New York has been a hub for Irish immigrants since the 1800s, shaping the city’s politics, neighborhoods, and cultural life. From the historic Irish bars of Midtown and the Bronx to the Irish Arts Center in Manhattan, the community’s presence is unmistakable. Each March, New York hosts the world’s oldest and largest St. Patrick’s Day Parade along Fifth Avenue, a tradition that draws millions and cements the city’s place at the heart of Irish America.

    Ulster American

    Ulster American by David Ireland is a savagely funny play that dissects the intersection of identity politics, ego, privilege, and the Northern Irish Troubles with satirical precision. On the evening before rehearsals begin for her new work, Ulster-born playwright Ruth Davenport visits the home of English director Leigh Carver, along with Oscar-winning Hollywood star Jay Conway who has just arrived in London to star in the world premiere. What begins as a cordial gathering to discuss the upcoming production quickly descends into a brutal psychological brawl as egos, ideologies, and historical baggage collide. A theatrical hand grenade disguised as a drawing-room comedy, Ulster American explosively reveals some raw contradictions at the heart of modern storytelling and political posturing. In 2018, Ulster American was produced at the Traverse Theatre as part of the Edinburgh Fringe. It won a Scotsman Fringe First and the Critics Award for Theatre in Scotland for Best New Play. Ulster American was revived by Second Half Productions at the Riverside Studios, London in 2023 featuring Woody Harrelson, Andy Serkis and Louisa Harland.
