THE STORY: Following the technique he utilized so brilliantly in I Knock at the Door, Paul Shyre has again adapted the rich and imaginative writings of Sean O'Casey into theatre of great variety and dramatic impact. In the present instance, Mr. Shyre has conceived his work in a modified play form, with narration and stage action cleverly interbalanced. The effect achieved is unique. Great prose and striking theatre combined into an experience of humor, pathos and moving power.

Presented Off-Broadway with great success. "No one who appreciates Sean O'Casey could fail to be interested in Paul Shyre's adaptation for the stage of the third volume of his magnificent novelized autobiographies, Drums Under the Windows." - NY Post. "This is one of those small and selective Off-Broadway offeringsIt is strenuously recommended." - NY Journal-American. "Words that brood and laugh and sing" - NY Times.
