About this event

Presented as part of Gradfest 2025, a collaboration of productions at The Lir Academy at Trinity College Dublin. These plays are a culmination of an intensive year of hands-on training by our MFA students in directing, producing, and set design.

After losing her job, boyfriend and apartment, Mae returns to Washington State to take care of her dad.

Back in her childhood home, she struggles to adapt and distracts herself with fantasies of a cowboy. In this intimate, vulnerable and hilarious dark comedy, Clare Barron skillfully blends reality with make-believe to explore family, illness and a re-coming of age.

You Got Older is about falling apart as you’re failing to launch, and what you might find instead.

This amateur production of “You Got Older” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk
