Postcards from the Ledge is a 2017 play by Paul Howard, as part of the Ross O'Carroll-Kelly series. It had its world premiere on 25 October 2017, at the Gaiety Theatre, Dublin produced by Landmark Productions.[1] [2]
The title is a reference to Carrie Fisher's semi-autobiographical novel Postcards from the Edge and "ledge", a slang abbreviation for "legend."
The year is 2029. Ross is fifty; his wife Sorcha is Taoiseach; his triplet sons are at the centre of the Castlerock College Junior Cup team. Ross is asked to sell a house in Sallynoggin — his childhood home. This brings up old memories.
