59E59 Theaters (Val Day, Artistic Director; Brian Beirne, Managing Director) will welcome the return of Ireland's leading new play company Fishamble: The New Play Company with the US premiere of MAZ AND BRICKS, written by Eva O'Connor and directed by Jim Culleton.

Bricks is planning to take his daughter to the zoo, but nothing goes according to plan. As the day unfolds, the two become unlikely friends, changing each other in ways they never thought possible.
The play was first produced mere days after Ireland repealed their Eighth Amendment, a landmark referendum that legalized abortion in Ireland. The play was called "particularly timely...excruciatingly funny...powerful" by the Irish Independent and "a provocative comedy" by the Sunday Times in its Dublin premiere.
