Description: A dramatic and poetic meditation on the history and present plight of Derry. McGuinness develops the non-naturalistic techniques of his celebrated 'Observe the Sons of Ulster Marching Towards the Somme' to produce a testament that is elegiac, angry, ironic and profound. 'Carthaginians' was first performed at the Peacock Theatre, Dublin, in September 1988.
