Tales from the Fountain

 

This was a new play for schools on Development Issues. WYA (then known as 'WYD') and the Waterford branch of the World Development Centre commissioned local writer Stephen Stubbs to write a one-act play which raised the topical issues of Global Village and Refugees. The play was aimed at the age group of the cast (9 - 13 years) and contrasted the lives of young people in Waterford, Bosnia and Sudan. It was directed by Sile Penkert and played to over 1400 school students.
