Little Brother

A darkly comic and beautifully observed play set in modern-day Belfast, winner of the 2024 Verity Bargate Award. Premiered at Soho Theatre in 2025.

'I'd like you to promise me that you're not going to try and set yourself on fire again.'

It's 3 a.m. and Brigid's phone rings. Her brother Niall is by the river with a plastic bag and lighter fluid. Sometimes being there for people you love is very, very difficult.

Little Brother is a darkly comic play about sibling love, self-destruction, and what it means to save someone who doesn't want to be saved. Set in modern-day Belfast, it asks what happens when the systems designed to help us fall short, and love is doing more heavy lifting than it should.

Winner of the 2024 Verity Bargate Award, Eoin McAndrew's play premiered at Soho Theatre, London, in 2025, directed by Emma Jordan.

'A masterfully crafted, heart-wrenching play. a rare gem' Anupama Chandrasekhar, Verity Bargate Award judge

'Great theatricality, humour and compassion. It stayed with me long after I had finished reading' Moira Buffini, Verity Bargate Award judge
