Smash-hit playwriter Philip McMahon, of THISISPOPBABY, came on to chat about his new play Once Before I Go ahead of its world premiere in the Gate Theatre next month. The play is set against the backdrop of Dublin's Burgeoning gay rights movement of the 80s and 90s, and the contemporary LGBTQ+ community of today.

Once Before I Go with Philip McMahon

This week's podcast comes ten years after Siamsa Tire was invited to perform at WERK, hosted by Thisispopbaby, the company which is co-directed by today's guest Phillip McMahon. Both companies appear to inhabit very different theatrical worlds which is why Joanne wanted to chat with Phillip, a Dublin-based director and playwright who holds a strong belief in active citizenship and taking responsibility as an artist to create places that people want to be in – be that in a theatrical setting or in the everyday. Enjoy!

He has served his county, winning 7 All Ireland medals for Dublin &amp; he has served his country, shedding light on his experience growing up in Ballymun during a heroin epidemic . Philly McMahon regularly visits our nations schools &amp; prisons , offering support and education  on the effects drugs are having on our community. He took time out from his busy schedule to have an in-depth conversation with me about loss , grief,  triumph &amp; glory .I hope you enjoy as much as I did .
